Pictures of Diwali celebration at newly constructed Sharda Yatra temple at LoC (Line of Control) Teetwal in Kashmir have surfaced online. A large number of Kashmiri pandits, locals, and Army jawans participated, lit oil lamps and candles to celebrate Diwali. Before 1947, a dharmshala and a Sikh gurdwara existed on the same plot and were burned down in tribal raids.
