India to remove "special status" from Muslim majority Kashmir and split the state in two


Recommended Posts

Move to split disputed state follows security crackdown and detention of politicians

Quote

The proposal, which has been advocated by Hindu nationalists for decades, is the most radical change any government has suggested for Kashmir’s status since the region was granted autonomy in exchange for joining the Indian union after independence in 1947.

 

Yeah, this totally won't exacerbate tensions with Pakistan.  Not at all.

My extended family and my wife's friends in Pakistan are very concerned about this. India has been really pushing Pakistan's buttons lately. 

 

But does their button work? Is it bigly and powerful like Trump's?

This will allow non-Kashmiris to buy land there now, which will allow more Hindus to move and own land in Kashmir. Modi is pretty much following the Israeli strategy for slowly making a disputed area align closer to your country when you flood your supporters to the region.

Oh hell - that makes total sense!
