Abrogation of Article 370 was just the first step: Fighting entrenched jihadi mindset in Kashmir is the real battle

Firstpost  

Today as we observe the third anniversary of the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A, we need to commend the Modi government for doing something which seemed impossible till it was done on 5 Augusts 2019 Kashmir is back in news, for wrong reasons: A labourer from Bihar was killed and two others were injured in a grenade attack by terrorists in the Pulwama district on Thursday. The recent targeted killings of Hindus in the predominantly Muslim Kashmir Valley have instilled fear among the region’s Hindus — and outrage outside the Union Territory. One would be gravely mistaken if one considers the exodus of Kashmiri Hindus, one of India’s oldest living indigenous communities, in 1990 to be the first in line. It’s this insistence on being “different” that is the root cause of separatism, violence and terrorism in Kashmir and also pockets of West Bengal, Assam and Kerala, among others.
