“I feel purposeless and depressed because I can’t go to school. I missed my exams on August 12 and I feel my future is insecure now. I want to be a writer and grow to be an independent, successful Kashmiri woman. But it seems to be getting more difficult as this continues.”

It was a holiday on Aug 12, on account of Eid. You should be more responsible with your statements given you’re a nobel laureate. Rabble rousing isn’t the way to go and more so for Pakistanis.https://www.officeholidays.com/countries/india/jammu-and-kashmir/2019 …

August 12, 2019 was celebrated as Eid in India. It was a national holiday in India and no exams were scheduled in any school, college or University within our country and many other countries too. The person providing you with information doesn't stay in India
