Narendra Modi govt has managed Kashmir well so far, but litmus test will come when restrictions are relaxed

Firstpost  

What Narendra Modi will ultimately be judged on is his willingness to preserve and indeed enhance the ordinary Kashmiri’s dignity. Its Prime Minister Imran Khan promises never to talk to India again only to contradict himself a few days later, writing in The New York Times that “with the nuclear shadow hovering over South Asia, we realise that Pakistan and India have to move out of a zero-sum mind-set to begin dialogue on Kashmir.” Its ministers, including prime minister Imran, repeatedly threaten India with nuclear war only to claim the next day that Pakistan won’t be the first to push the button. Except for nutty socialist leaders from the US and the UK such as Bernie Sanders and Jeremy Corbyn, major global powers including the Islamic Gulf nations have come out on India’s side. As we near a month into the decision to abrogate Article 370 and imprisonment of Kashmir’s political actors, there will be increasing pressure on India to hasten up the process of “easing up”. This calls for a new social contract between the Indian State and its most alienated citizens.” Ultimately, Modi’s decision to relax norms, set Kashmiri politicians free, remove the communication blackout, reduce security and relax all curbs on civil liberties will depend on how well he understands the key question: in the battle between desire for normality, getting access to public goods/services and the search for Islamic identity, which side will ordinary Kashmiris choose?
