Hello friends,
I am Deepak and have been living in New Delhi, have our ancestral home in Banga (Punjab),As told by our ancestors we are Kashmiri Pundits of 'Pattu' surname believe to be descendants of Atri Rishi, and our forefather must have migrated centuries ago from the valley, probably from the Anantnaag region and most surely due to atrocities drawn towards kashmiri pundits by Mughals (Aurangzeb),and to avoid conversion; proud to be a Kashmiri pundit & really pray to pray Bholay Shankar to shower peace and prosperity to the most devine place on this planet, let the peace prevail and Kashmir returns to its glorious past of abundant splendour and righteousness.
Really felt the touch of brotherhood and oneness on sharing my side of story among my brothers & sisters.
Love to hear from rest of us,
Love Kashmir forever
Let our community (Kashmiri) grows strong
Let peace prevails.
