Basera-e-Tabassum, 'Abode of Laughter', is where many orphaned young Kashmiri girls have found a place to live. Not just a haven, 'Basera' is a something these girls can truly call home, a place to share joys and laughter and come together to become a family. And the person who created this family, who brought smiles to so many innocent faces, is Adik Kadam, a young man of 30. Adik faced countless obstacles, from distrusting hostile natives to the gun-points of terrorists, to turn his vision of 'Basera' into a reality. He has slowly but surely earned the trust and respect of the locals, and receives their strong support. He looks forward to creating more such abodes for the Kashmiri girls, and strengthening the bond between Kashmir and ther est of the India.
