Saudi, June 19: In a heartwarming and historic reunion, relatives from Ladakh and Baltistan, separated for over seven decades, met during this year’s Hajj pilgrimage at Saudi Arabia. The emotional gathering occurred against the backdrop of ongoing peace in the region but highlights the persistent barriers that keep families apart.
Despite the peace in the region, people of Ladakh and Gilgit-Baltistan remain deprived of the opportunity to meet. The meeting was a poignant reminder of the enduring bond between families torn apart by political and geographical divides.
Renowed Social Acitivist from Kargil Sajjad Kargili Shared a video upon of Social Media Platform Formally Known as “X” Relatives from #Ladakh and #Baltistan, divided for last 70 years, finally met during the #Hajj pilgrimage.
𝑫𝒆𝒔𝒑𝒊𝒕𝒆𝒑𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒈𝒊𝒐𝒏, 𝒑𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒍𝒆𝒐𝒇 #𝑳𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒌𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅 #𝑮𝒊𝒍𝒈𝒊𝒕𝑩𝒂𝒍𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒅𝒐𝒇𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒚𝒕𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒆𝒕.
They are continuously demanding the reopening of the #Kargil-#Skardu road for divided families, but their pleas have been ignored by the governments on both sides. 𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒔𝒖𝒏𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒖𝒏𝒔𝒆𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒅𝒚, Kargili Wrote.
For years, residents of both regions have continuously demanded the reopening of the Kargil-SkarduRoad to facilitate reunions of divided families. However, their pleas have been consistently ignored by the governments on both sides. The road, if reopened, would offer a direct route for families to connect, promoting not just emotional but also cultural and social healing.
The families’ reunion during Hajj has brought attention to what many describe as an unending and unseen tragedy. The emotional moments shared by these long-separated relatives underscore the deep human desire for connection and the pain of prolonged separation.
