Seduction of the old City of Srinagar: An Enquiry into Competing Narratives of Belonging
A Photo Essay
This essay explores the various narratives of belonging vis-a-vis the city of Srinagar. As the city witnesses massive transformations politically and socially, the interplay between space and power acquires new forms. In this essay, I map this interplay through the elite narrative, the porno-tropic narrative, and the localist narrative to the city.
