| Interrupted Peace Process and the Way Forward | | |
Dr Ashok Bhan
Peace process in Jammu and Kashmir began circa 1995 with resumption of political activities leading to the assembly election of 1996 and formation of an elected Government after a prolonged Governor/President’s rule. It peaked off with assembly elections of 2014. For a variety of reasons this election was an important milestone in the peace initiative. The situation on ground was far more peaceful than any of the preceding three assembly elections in 1996, 2002 and 2008. Credible electoral exercises had substantially reduced the ‘democratic deficit’. A huge voter turnout, even in constituencies with sizeable separatists’ influence, was a testimony to the faith in ... |

The State Department had said in readout that during the call "Pompeo raised the importance of Pakistan taking decisive action against all terrorists operating in Pakistan". Islamabad refuted the US readout as incorrect, saying that this "issue of terrorism" was not discussed.

He linked State and Centre’s stand on impugned Article 35A in and outside Supreme Court (SC) with the forthcoming Civic and Panchayat polls, threatening that if they don’t clarify their stand on it and indicate steps to protect it, NC is out of it. Indeed, it is quite a smart move which many call political blackmailing.

| | Relevance of the ‘Vajpayee Doctrine’ | | |
Dr Ashok Bhan
Former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee poured his heart out when he famously announced in a public rally in Srinagar in April 2003 that issues can be resolved if we move forward guided by the principles of ‘Insaniyat’, ‘Jamhooriyat’ and ‘Kashmiriyat’. ‘Vajpayee doctrine’ has been quite often debated and variously interpreted. One unmistakable inference that can be drawn is that it was enthusiastically received by the people of the state. The statements emanating from Kashmir, including from separatists’ camp, mourning Vajpayee’s passing away is a testimony to the high esteem in which he was held. He had created a striking impact and generated hope. As we g... |
