Description : In Kashmir’s Eidgah, the traditional livestock market ahead of Eid al-Adha unfolds under the weight of uncertainty. Traders and shepherds line up with sheep and goats, but the usual buzz is missing. Fallout from the recent Pahalgam attack, heightened India-Pakistan tensions, and worsening economic conditions including rising prices and dwindling household incomes have dampened the festive spirit and slowed down sales, affecting both buyers and those who depend on this seasonal trade for survival. Kashmir, India.
