The LG said that the unprecedented change taking place in J&K was also helping promote cultural activities.

A cinema hall is opening this month after three decades. The culture of organising literary festivals and art camps has picked up across J&K. Local handicrafts and handlooms sectors have been revived and a new dawn has been witnessed by the tourism sector, he said.

The LG congratulated Vice Chancellor IUST Prof Shakil Ahmad Romshoo and convener of the event Prof Abha Chauhan for facilitating an open academic dialogue that brought together experts, sociologists, and academicians from across India and abroad to discuss changes in the backdrop of accelerated development and globalisation.

Prof Romshoo in his welcome address highlighted the significance of academia in finding solutions to the problems of society and the world.

He underscored the universitys crucial role in guiding and preparing the future human capital.

President Indian Sociological Society and convener of the event Prof Abha Chauhan spoke on the syncretic culture prevalent in Kashmir for centuries.

Sociology is needed in every sphere of life and society. The idea of the seminar is to focus on implementing the key values of sociology in society, she said.

Organising Secretary Prof Pirzada Muhammad Amin said that experts from universities around the country and abroad would share their knowledge and deliver lectures through offline and online modes during the seminar.

Vice Chancellor, University of Kashmir (KU) Prof Nilofer Khan, Divisional Commissioner Kashmir Pandurang K Pole, ADGP Kashmir Vijay Kumar, and Secretary to Government, Youth Services and Sports Sarmad Hafeez were also present on the occasion.
