Reach out to J&K’s populace, ease Net curbs; but keep LoC vigil tight

Deccan Chronicle  

No one could have expected that the landmark decisions on Jammu and Kashmir’s constitutional and administrative status taken on August 5, 2019 would be without any followup turbulence in different domains. The main angst in the populace, besides that arising from the inevitable loss of special constitutional status, appears focused on two things; first the perceived discrimination, specially due to restrictions on communications with mobile Internet under suspension, and second, a misplaced fear of being swamped by attempts at demographic change in the Valley. The first has brought much empathy in international political and media circles, with comments relating to the unsustainability of the government’s current policy. The mobile Internet facility, with backup of strong information buildup and influence capability in the hands of the government, should in due course not be seen as a serious risk; it could be seen as an opportunity and also help to build greater international support.
