This is a good advice from a departed soul; there is no doubt about it. If generalised, it can be said that this is the best advice for all the youth of Kashmir. The youth in Kashmir should avoid taking part in the confrontational politics being carried out in the name of freedom of their state. They should build a career for themselves in education. If they do so, it would be good for them and also for the whole of Kashmir. Political problems are not a monopoly of Kashmir. Every country and region has its share of political problems. The best policy for the Kashmiri youth is to leave the political issues of Kashmir to be decided by the Kashmiri leaders and devote all their time and energy to securing excellent higher education. In this way, they would be able to fulfill their ambitions in a much better way. According to biological laws, youth is the most productive age. The best advice for the Kashmiri youth is that they should not waste it by indulging in politics, rather they should make education their topmost priority and work towards excelling in it. Education is the only guarantee for their future. No other pursuits, can be a guarantee for a better future. The state of Kerala is a model for Kashmiris. According to recent reports, Kerala has hundred percent primary education with the highest literacy rates in India. Kashmiri youth should work on a similar mission and make Kashmir a hundred percent literate state. o Education is the only guarantee for the future. No other pursuits, can be a guarantee for a better future.
