Modi's Article 370 remark: Is it time to end special status for J&K?

[Jade]

It would take just 10 years for the demographic to change in Kashmir if Article 370 were to end. A demographic change in Kashmir should settle Kashmir

 

[he-man]

i second that

 

[Sriram]

I know such kind of restrictions exist in some NE states but is it also true about Uttarkhand as Omar Abdullah claimed?
I am unable to verify...
Do clarify. anyone?

 

[farhan_9909]

And Pakistan will also have to do the same.

certainly here we also can't buy land or anything in AJK unless you have the local domicile

 

[Android]

I think J&K should be separated into three separate states namely Kashmir Valley, Ladakh and Jammu.

 

[jha]

Just divide the state into Jammu-Ladakh and valley. Everything will gain pace and this article will be thrown into dust bin in two of three states. Valley can keep doing what they do. What should Jammu and Ladakh suffer because an idiots like Omar and Mehbooba are CMs ..

 

[JanjaWeed]

Good that Modi raked this issue up. Atleast a debate is taking shape. Scrap this poxy article & let the state make some progress!

 

[akand bharat]

i am gonna vote for bjp this time as i am sick of the socialist policies of govt,but don't expect too much from the bjp.the govt will be a coalition so they cannot flex their muscles due to poitical considerations.

Coalition is Not problem for bjp @he man Look at the Past. it was Bjp govt dare too make Nuclear explosions of 1998 even if it impacted Into Sanctions From the world Powers Bjp have balls too take decisions in Strategic matters Like against Pakistan and china

 

[Parul]

Even if BJP alone wins 270 + seats in next general elections, it still cannot repeal Article 370.

 

[surya kiran]

The said Article has been adopted by the people of the State. One needs to appreciate the reason why people in the State want it to be present. Their belief is that the Article protects them from outsiders coming and spoiling the state and the fear of loss of decision making. Being a democracy, it is paramount that people of the state request for amends in it.

This is possible only if the people of Kashmir realise the benefits of laws governing specified departments. Now to give a simple example. Let's take education. If the Union government provides for extra benefits to Kashmir provided education is brought under the central government, where new higher educational institutions are setup.

Bringing in commerce under the union government, where the central government is able to guarantee and promote the state to private players. This can be done for a period of say 15 years. During this period people of the state will benefit.

The need is to be take evolutionary steps and ensure the people of the state benefit. This is the only way forward.

 

[Indian Tiger]

If the people really want article 370 and it's good for them, then let it be... but implement article 370 in every state without partiality or repeal 370 from JK...

 

[Infinity]

Reason behind?

Because the People here be it Kashmiri Muslims, Pundits or Dogras all want to enjoy the fruits of Article 370......................Because nobody from other part of India can Purchase Land here or set up a Business..............If i want to Buy a Flat or set up a Business in Jammu i have to do it in the name of a State Subject.....................Industries are set up here on land allotted on 99 years Lease .................

It has a negative impact too. Business will not come as it came to Blore and Hyd.

 

[KRAIT]

People don't know that out of 3,00,000 Kashmiri Pundit refugees, 20,000 died in refugee camps.

They will not return even if they can return now.
