By raising the Kashmir issue, it is worth noting that the Prime Minister instead of his advisors, has decided to take over the reins. He has realised it is important to engage with the people of Kashmir. To deal with terrorists, weapons are needed but when civilians start taking to the streets, when the youth start picking up stones, it is necessary to work out a solution through discourse. Incase people are doubtful of the government’s intentions or are mislead by a few, the Government is equipped with the biggest machinery – Mehbooba Mufti’s support. The entire valley will reap the benefits for a long time if the Government is able to take them into confidence.
