Pradeep Koul while speaking on the topic with reference to ancient written history of Kashmir i.e Neelmat Purana and Rajtarangni made mention of Raja Ghonen, Raja Damodar and Rani Yushomati. This was during the period of Mahabharatta where we can clearly say that Kashmir was culturally and politically part of India. During the period of Raja Meghwahan , Rani Amrit Prabha, Ishan Devi and Roopa Devi Kashmir represented the brilliant example where people gave preference to knowledge than to dynasty.
While referring the period of 8th century during the rule of King Lalitaditya Kashmir reached the glory of power, the advancing onslaught of Arbs was defeated and his kingdom touched the frontiers of Iran and China.
Koul emphasized the need to understand Kashmir in its real perspective and defeat the designs of false propaganda.
Prof Sandeep Pandita while appreciating the activities of Kendra made a mention of making our new generation aware of our past history. Radhey Sham Ji conducted the proceedings.
