1986 Burden Carrier Carry Eighties Heavy Jammu Kashmir Laden Load Loaded Shouldered Shoulders Srinagar Strain Toil Weight
EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the resilience and determination of a Kashmiri man as he toils under the weight of a heavy load on his shoulders in the bustling streets of Srinagar, Jammu, during the 1980s. The date is 1986, a time when life in Kashmir was marked by hardship and struggle. The man's face is etched with the strain of carrying the burden, yet he manages a faint smile for the camera, a testament to his unwavering spirit. The sacks slung over his shoulders are a common sight in this region, where people have long relied on manual labor to make ends meet. The photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Kashmir during a period of great change and upheaval. This image is a poignant reminder of the human capacity to endure, to carry on despite the weight of the world. It is a powerful reminder of the strength and resilience of the human spirit."
