Summary:

Ghar Ka Pata is an autobiographical account of my inquiry into my identity as a Kashmiri Pandit Woman (Kashmiri Hindu Minority) in the absence of my own memory. My family left Kashmir in early 1990s as a part of the Kashmiri Pandit exodus due to the armed insurgency. I was 6 years old at that time and therefore grew up remembering nothing of my home. 24 years later, I went to Kashmir for the first time with my family. That event acts as a catalyst for me to rediscover and retrace my roots with the help of my sisters and extended family. We hear oral accounts of a less documented event and time in the history of Kashmir which reveals the deep connections that go beyond religion and politics. At a personal level, it reveals the cruelty of exile and how it continues across generations.
