Multi talented Ashraf Mir dies while performing his duties in PDD department. A theater artist, a rabab maker, a rabab singer and having a lot of talent Ashraf Mir has left his family and friends wailing at Badipora village of Chadoora.
He was very talented at making a rabab, a Kashmiri musical instrument. Few weeks back he gave us first and last interview for Voice of Valley.
Our entire reports and staff have been shocked by his death. The family members of Ashraf Mir have alleged negligence by PDD to provide the safety gears for him to set right supply lines.
He died by a massive electric shock while being on one of the electric poles. The engineers of PDD have said that they set up an enquiry and have assured the family of full compensation. With his death it is the end of an era about the traditional Kashmiri music in Chadoora area especially making of rabab from the woods with such zeal.
We will attach his last interview with this story as a mark of respect to his talent.
