Soch Kral (1782 – 29 November 1854), was a Kashmiri Sufi poet, and is a Sufi saint.
Soch Kral was born in 1782 in the village of Inder, in the Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir. He was a potter by profession. He lived a simple life devoted to spirituality, monotheism and mysticism. His father was the Sufi poet Arif Kral,[1] and he was a disciple of Kashmiri poet Momin Sahab R.A.[citation needed]
Soch Kral may have migrated to the village of Devsar in the Anantnag district, where his descendants are still living. He married but divorced his wife,[1] and died on 29 November 1854 in Inder.[1]
