Jammu and Kashmir is world famous for its scenic splendour, requisite monuments, snow capped mountains, plentiful wildlife, hailed all over the world for its incredible natural beauty. Kashmir is cradled in the lofty green Himalayas and surrounded by mountain peaks glistening lakes, lush green valley’s, temples and Mughal era gardens. Kashmir is rightly called “Paradise on Earth”. But this paradise turned into hell since 1989. The armed conflict has lead to social disorder, disorganization, physical and mental health deterioration, mass psychological depression and cultural aggression; and due to the turmoil both the communities suffered in their own ways. By the end of 1990 about half a million pandits left their homes in Kashmir and the displaced people sought refuge in Jammu adjoining districts. They suffered a lot in migrate campuses and private rented accommodations in Jammu. Thousands perished due to mental sickness, heat strokes, hostile climatic conditions and nostalgia. Literature is always a product of circumstances and situation of society in which it is produced, so is the case with Kashmiri pandits whose literature is mostly impregnated by the pain and agony of loss of homeland and loss of cultural identity. Despite the constraints experienced, attempts were made by the displaced pandits to employee alternate way of participating in their cultural space in the new locals with the hope that one day they will return to their home land and restore their lost cultural identity. Such issues were raised by various uprising literary gems of Kashmiri origin through their writings especially novels- which is the easiest and effective medium of exploring the emotional and psychological conflicts- among the other genres. The proposed research work will focus especially upon the psycho-cultural conflict of women of the region despite any race and religion.
