Wow, there were great interviews here. GL for sure.

Great work. This is the type of pod that should go straight to TV.

Please take a minute, click on my head and check out my pod small town climate change. Give it a GL if you like.

Thanks.

This is great. I love it.

I like the footage. Good job. GL.

courageous footage. GL!

Well made video. But nevertheless, survey appears skewed - just two or three respondents are featured. Would be better if it shows the Indian perspective too.

I agree. Courageous! Well done.

Sam,

It's certainly a watchable bit of seat-of-your-pants journalism. It even has that whispered, forbidden, subversive air to it -- especially in the beginning.

But I have to say, or maybe ask, What is the real story here? What is the real source of conflict between these two countries, especially 60 years after partition? Your video implies a simmering rivalry and resentment, but you as the producer would seem to have some responsibility to dig deeper, both in the interviews and in your research, to find out why these people won't get along. It's not just theater, exotic as it may seem. Ghandi was from this culture, and any efforts at reconciliation can be an example for us all.

Curious to hear what you have to say.

Wow, i really enjoyed this! Great piece of journalism! Definitely should be aired on television...

This really does deserve to be on tv. Congrats.

Excellent pod. Well deserved GL.

I remember seeing this pod a while ago, it was some of your earlier work that got me interested in Current because of citizen journalism. Your work is VITAL, relevant and constantly intriguing. How do you get to these countries to do this kind of work? I would love to find a way to help out in some capacity if possible. Just feel compelled to put that out there.

Thanks for all of this work. Feel free to check out my first vid launch, We Create.

Good interviews. I first learned about this ceremony from The New York Times or NPR earlier this year. The different perspectives on the significance of the ceremony are very intriguing. What I like about current is that after watching a good pod, you feel drawn to research the issue.

Coincidentally I just participated in a Model United Nations Conference in which we attempted to solve the Kashmir conflict. It proved incredibly difficult. There was a lot of talk about Kashmir as an independent state, to act as a buffer between India and Pakistan. But that would not reduce the paramilitary activity within Kashmir.
Our final resolution divided Kashmir as it is currently divided, but established international borders and included provisions that would decrease the violence.
