Thank a lot for the roth recipe and pun kath.

Chandra Ji, You surpass expectations every time. The timing of the Roth recipe and Pan Story is perfect.

Added By Arun Koul

Dear Chandra Ji,Congratulations.The RoatHh in itself is a delicacy. There are various types and designs of the RoaTh. Some are known as the Sawa Seri. Some are Khushki,also termed as the "Taiwi RoAth" and some are designed like KAI'NKINI RoaTh, dedicated to the Divine Mother.We would like to listen to the Audio on the PaN'U Kath, a legendary story on the auspicious Pa'N Diyun, associated with ROATHH. Can you please do it in its pure Kashmiri style?
