Keeping in mind the situation on the ground in Kashmir, both state and the union government should involve all the stakeholders to find a balanced solution.
The vexed issue of Kashmir has been burning since independence. After the partition of India and the creation of Pakistan, solving the problem of Kashmir has been one of the biggest challenges for the government of India. It is no secret that Pakistan has been fishing in the troubled waters. When Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the prime minister of India, he had devised a formula for the solution of Kashmir problem. He had given a slogan – Kashmiriyat, Insaniyat and Hindustaniyat, around which the solution to the Kashmir problem has to be found. His efforts had not entirely resulted in the negative.
It’s not that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not tried to solve the Kashmir issue using the same approach. If we talk of Insaniyat, Narendra Modi, in 2014 had taken personal interest to see that the Kashmiris are provided proper relief and rehabilitation after massive flood ravaged the Valley. He had visited the state to see that there is no slackening in the relief operations to the Kashmiris. Not only that Indian Army had left no stone unturned to provide succour and relief to the affected people. This sent a good message across the Valley. Modi government again showed its face of Kashmiriyat when no political party got full majority in the state assembly election. BJP came forward to form an alliance with the hardliner PDP and formed a stable government, marking the beginning of a new era of coalition politics where both political parties, believed to be at extreme ends of the political spectrum and opposite to each other, came together to provide a government leaving aside all speculations. This alliance is still working in the state.
