The regions history remains buried today under its hollow structure
Zaina Kadal, the heart of old city Srinagar, was once popular for politics as Mujahid Manzil was located here. The Manzil was considered a “shrine of resistance politics” against Dogra regime, and which was later on taken over by National Conference. Once being a hub for political activities fighting against Dogra’s, Mujahid Manzil was a focal point as people from all walks of life in Jammu and Kashmir would visit the place to meet political leaders like Sheikh Mohamamd Abdullah, Maulana Masoodi, Chowdhary Ghulam Abbas and others to get glimpses of Kashmir s topmost leaders and first hand information of regional politics.
