Article 370: Kashmiri groups in U.K. react with sadness and joy

The Hindu  

The news of the Indian government amending Article 370 that gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir received a mixed reaction from Kashmiri groups in the U.K. with some terming it as a “sad day” while others hailing it as a “historic day”. “It is a sad day for people of Jammu and Kashmir, because our State of Jammu and Kashmir is officially decimated by the government of India, said Dr. Shabir Choudhry, president of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the United Kashmir Peoples National Party. ‘Bold move’ Rahul Roy-Chaudhury, senior fellow for South Asia at the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies think tank, described it as the first significant policy decision of the Modi 2.0 government, which was a bold move based on strong ideological grounds, political rhetoric and the implementation of the BJP manifesto. Dr. Gareth Price, senior research fellow, Asia-Pacific Programme, at the Royal Institute of International Affairs, commonly known as Chatham House, said it was difficult to fully discern the broad plan behind the Indian government’s decision.
