Abstract

The sample was selected through multi stage sampling technique. For the sample 800 adolescents were selected from urban and rural areas of Kashmir. The sample was collected with the help of self-constructed questionnaire. The study shows that the majority of intact-disrupted adolescents, adolescent boys-girls and rural-urban adolescents perceive armed conflict in Kashmir as political conflict. Adolescents in greater number believe that state government and armed force are responsible for unrest in Kashmir. A meager fraction of adolescents holds militants and local leaders culpable. Majority of adolescents expect that normalcy will return to Kashmir. Adolescents prefer good governance and peaceful dialogue in context to this.
