In the past 13 years, a Muslim insurgency has scarred the residents of this valley, disputed by India and Pakistan. Once described as "paradise on earth" with its magnificent landscapes and bustling tourist business, now all of Kashmir's cinemas and most of its hotels have been turned into army barracks. India says 36,000 people have been killed; human rights groups say 80,000. 12 years ago, psychiatrists saw about 20 patients a day. Now, they treat as many as 200.
