SQAY, the timeless martial heritage of Kashmir with origins tracing back to 4012 BC, stands as an enduring symbol of valor, discipline and cultural legacy. Revitalized four decades ago, this ancient art form has been meticulously restructured and elevated to global prominence under the aegis of the ICS preserving its rich traditions while inspiring generations with its spirit of excellence, resilience and national pride. On this momentous occasion, the ICS, in unison with its esteemed global affiliates, proudly commemorated the 40th World SQAY Foundation Day on 7th May 2026.
