Kashmir is viewed internationally as a
potential nuclear βlashpoint, given the fact that
it has been for the last seven decades a bone of
contention between the two nuclear-armed South
Asian nations, India and Pakistan. It is one of the
world’s oldest unresolved disputes that has deβied
UN mediation or intervention.
With Indian general elections around the
corner, Prime Minister Modi spent almost an
entire day in the state on February 3, 2019,
launching a slew of development projects, from a
hospital to a sports complex, a university campus
to a hydroelectric project, in a bid to woo the 15
million people of the state that is a part of India,
while a third of whose original territory is now
part of Pakistan and a sliver with China.
All eyes are now on the Election Commission
to see whether the state elections in Jammu and
Kashmir will be held along with the national
elections in India. Will the exercise in democracy
bring new hope for Kashmir and its people? Will

the new Indian government - if it comes with a
strong mandate - be able to look at Kashmir in a
new light and talk with the disaff ected in Kashmir
and with Pakistan to write a new story for the
state and its people?
Asia News Agency’s New Special Study on
“Kashmir 2019: Strong-arm methods, political
vacuum, living on hope” examines these various
issues and gives a rare background, analysis and
interpretation on what ails the state, its tortuous
history, its recent contretemps and hopes, if any,
for the future.
