| BJP-PDP coalition cause of rise in violence in Kashmir | | | If you ask one question to an ordi
nary civilian about the situation in Kashmir. He and others may not hesitate to question the coalition between the PDP and the BJP. In fact the situation worsened during the last five years despite a sound foreign policy followed by New Delhi. This is what a PEW centre has in its analysis explained. A majority of the Indians believe situation in Kashmir worsened in last five years, reveals a study by PEW Center. The latest survey by PEW Center says that a majority of Indians (55 percent) see the situation in Kashmir as a very big problem."More than half (53 percent) say circumstances in Kashmir have gotten worse over the last five years, and a majority (58 percent) believes the Indian government should use more military force than it uses currently in dealing with tensions in the area," the PEW report has said.
PEW, which provides information on social issues, public opinion, and demographic trends shaping the United States and the world has said that Indians largely view Pakistan as a threat and believe the situation in Kashmir warrants more military force."In the Center's spring survey last year, 76 percent of Indians said Pakistan is a major threat to their country, including 63 percent who said it is a very serious threat. This view was shared by people in rural areas and urban centers, supporters of both the prime minister's BJP and the Congress party, as well as Indians across age groups. Additionally, 65 percent said terrorism is a very big problem in India," the report said.
The survey and the study have revealed that the recent escalation in tensions between India and Pakistan after the Pulwama attack has turned the long-running territorial dispute over Kashmir into a potent campaign issue for Modi.
The report said that in the aftermath of Pulwama attack, Indian social media platforms saw such an uptick in fictitious or purposely misleading stories related to the attack that the head of Facebook India's Integrity Initiatives tweeted that he had "never seen anything like this before. Whatever the PEW has reported it is understood that BJP's alliance with the PDP remained the cause of rise of terrorist violence. In fact the author of coalition with BJP was none other than Mufti Mohd. Sayeed who wanted to end regional discrimination by sharing power with the Jammu centric party. During the last five years there has not been end nor cessation of ceasefire violations and the brunt is being borne by the people living in the border areas. Many attacks, including the bombing of JeM training camps at Balakot, Chakoti and Muzaffarabad took place and it was greeted with tension bigger Tension. |
