Every year on 19th January, Kashmiri Pandit community goes through many emotions - they remember and relive the pain they experienced 1989 onwards, they celebrate their resilience that has ensured the community not only survived three decades of exile from their homeland, but has been able to achieve huge success in almost every field, and they reaffirm their resolve to return as per their own geo-political demands that ensure a life of honor and dignity while ensuring non-refoulement!

To bring out these three emotions, Youth 4 Panun Kashmir organizes an annual effort under the name Nishkasan Ka Dard (NKD). The aim is to spend the night in tents during the cold night of 19th January every year and relive the pain, and use all mediums of expression to depict these three emotions - depict the pain, resilience, and resolve through paintings, sketches, photographs, poetry, skits, audio/visuals, etc.
