Anantnag: As dawn breaks over Panzath village in South Kashmir’s Anantnag district, hundreds of people step into icy spring waters carrying wicker baskets, nets and wooden tools.Children splash through shallow streams while elders clear weeds, mud and debris from narrow water channels. By afternoon, fish caught during the exercise will be shared in homes across the village.What appears to be a traditional fishing festival is, in fact, one of Kashmir’s oldest community-led conservation practices.
