P. Chidambaram on the Future of Kashmir After Article 370 | The Wire | Happymon Jacob
- 3 years ago
In this episode, Dr. Happymon Jacob speaks with P. Chidambaram, Former Home & Finance Minister about the situation in Kashmir after the BJP government's decision to abrogate Article 370. The conversation revolves around the government’s logic behind the decision and its immediate and long term implications for India's national security.
The conversation also focuses on the following specific questions: How can the government now work towards normalising the valley? Did this decision undo years of efforts by successive governments to integrate the people and the polity of Jammu and Kashmir into the rest of India? Where does Pakistan, if at all, figure in any Indian effort to bring peace and stability in Jammu and Kashmir? What mistakes were made by the previous governments in dealing with the valley and what lessons did they learn? Will the August 5 decision lead to Jammu and Kashmir becoming a bigger challenge than it was before this decision for all future governments?
