Kashmir Observer

JUNE 22, 2025 ISSUE

- KO WEB DESK

At a Srinagar mentorship program, entrepreneurship felt less like a buzzword, and more like an option.

That's the question dozens of young Kashmiris showed up to answer at Mission Yuva: Launch Your Entrepreneurship Journey workshop.

Held in both online and offline formats, the event was part of Startup Kashmir’s growing Saturday Mentorship Program, which aims to shift youth focus from job hunting to job creation.

Leading the session was Dr. Murtaza Rashid (JKAS), Deputy Secretary to Government, who brought in real-life lessons, personal stories, and actionable steps.
