The decline of Kashmiri literature is attributed to the global dominance of English, diminishing readership, and a disconnect between language and livelihood. Despite efforts by authors, a gap in teaching and societal attitudes hinders interest. The internet offers opportunities for promotion, but writers must adapt to contemporary themes. The younger generation, though globally connected, often overlooks local literature, posing a challenge to preserving Kashmiri cultural heritage. Language students, however, strive to keep the language alive through initiatives like e-libraries and YouTube recitations. Despite its rich history, Kashmiri literature faces an uphill battle for relevance.
