Karjai Fort

This vast fort near Khuiratta lies in Karjai village high overlooking the Banaah valley. The grandeur of this fort and the views it offers leave the visitor outstanded. However, the government of AJK has allowed this fort to fall into ruin. Most of the walls have fallen down, property looted and wild growth taken over. Currently, there is no programme to protect or restore this fort and creeply-crawlies, including snakes, are the guardians here. The AJK government has wasted a collosal potential to develop this heritage site into a tourist destination to serve the public, foreign tourists and students of history.

This is really a shame that this fort is in ruins now. Our heritage is going down the drain.
Vijay Kashkari 30-Nov-2010 07:54
The populace around should be conscious of the damage made to such places. The heritage needs to be preserved for the generations to come. If we are negligent, future generations shall curse us.
