Barzulla bridge

Ever since i was a child, barzulla bridge have been my part.

I still remember those days of waiting for school bus, watching convent girls bus passing by and traveling by local transport.

Barzulla bridge was almost constructed when i was child and open for public when i enter my adolescence.
Shopkeepers on barzulla bridge seem like a family since i know them for ages.

Before it, there was a small bridge which is almost dysfunctional now,where now you will find either workshops or street hawkers selling desi fast food.

Many even think that ever since barzulla bridge was open for traffic, since then Kashmir's troubled days have began as if it have cast bad eye on Kashmir


The barzulla bridge is more about belonging, longing and growing up for me than a bridge.
