Rasiq Imtiyaz Khan from the Wathora area of Budgam District shares his journey as a singer and music composer.
Like many other budding singers in the Valley, the journey wasn't easy for him.
Concerned about the future of aspiring singers in the valley, Rasiq said "I want to appeal the government to look into this matter as economically we are down.
If I run a studio here, I need that support from the government so that I can move forward and train the younger talented singers and promote them."
