In the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir, the government, along with the Ereignis Management Private Limited has organised an exhibition in Srinagar to motivate the young entrepreneurs of Kashmir.
Various stalls dedicated to the culture of Kashmir including Kashmiri arts, handlooms, handicrafts and traditional foods have been installed at the exhibition.
Despite the recent snowfall, several young entrepreneurs participated in the exhibition.
Maria Shahmiri, the organiser of the event, said, “Such events are important for the valley as this will help to provide employment to the youths here.”
“The people have been staying indoors for a very long time now. Firstly, the pandemic forced them to be indoors and then the winters. Visiting such events will be fun for them,” Shahmiri said.
Asma Saleem, an owner of a traditional food stall, said that the exhibition has given her an opportunity to showcase the traditional cuisine of the valley.
“I would love to participate at more such exhibitions so that I will be able to showcase my talents too,” Saleem added.
“This event has provided a platform to bring the business of the valley back to the track,” said Jalal-ud-din, a visitor at the exhibition.
