Abdullah further in his letter wrote that Kashmiris are wonderful and peace-loving and simple people. He said that people who visit the Valley will promise for their integrity.
A report also surfaced stating that Abdullah was reportedly informed about the manuscript of the book and was told that the identity of Sehmat and her family may be revealed. And after reading the manuscript, Abdullah asked the author to change the names of the character and present it as a fictional story. The author agreed to Abdullah.
