A Guide to Kashmir Conflict ft Air Vice-Marshal (Retd) Kapil Kak

from News and Views · host The Quint

"The Kashmiris have not let down India, India has let down Kashmir. And this is the result of virtually stripping away at the autonomy, which has been constitutionally guaranteed to the Kashmiris under the grand principle of India's federalism." That's what former Air Vice-Marshal Kapil Kak had to say about the Modi government abrogating Article 370 of the Constitution. Air Vice Marshal (Retd) Kak served in the Indian Air Force for 35 years, and took active part in the 1965 Indo-Pak War. Apart from his personal experience of being born and spending his childhood in Kashmir, Kak is also a senior expert on Kashmir, defence, national security and international security for the last twenty years. Drawing from the complex history of the Kashmir conflict, he gives us insight into how the Kashmiri identity is intrinsic to the people of Jammu and Kashmir and why the effective revocation of Article 370 goes against the spirit of India's Constitution.
