I am not an editor, I'm not even a foreign policy expert but a very ordinary Indian who is triggered by the last line of your article.The one thing I agree is that kashmir was on a landmine.
Since my childhood I have been listening about bloodshed in Kashmir.
The unsettled https://twitter.com/suhasinih/status/1190445752784314368
State that has held our country to ransom.
There was a Kashmiran aunty in my neighborhood who was also a teacher in our school. Being ignorant to her problems I used to feel why they don't seem well adjusted in Haryana. After crossing my childhood I realised they were a root
Less plant trying to find some soil to stand. We as a country failed KPs, they were made refugees in their own country on the basis of religion & we did nothing.
Every second day our young soldiers and officers are martyred in line of duty in Kashmir. Who they fight with locals
Turned terrorist. I am amazed why US Congress, UN,China western media doesn't do anything about it.
Answer is because it's our internal problem , we have to find a solution.
Kashmir problem had become a tumor that needed surgery and that has been done by abrogating #370
Achievement of this abrogation
1 Huge psychological barrier has been removed between a common kashmiri and Indian citizen.
2. Gave equal property rights to kashmiri women.
3.Valmiki community in Kashmir is no more lesser human than you or me.
4.Any ordinary Indian can buy
Property and do business anywhere in country.
5. Indian constitution is applicable in J&K.

All the world is concerned about Mehbooba who threatened 1947 like scenario in case 370 is repealed,Abdullahs for whom kashmir was just a treasury.
World is concerned about the
Communication blockade of 60 days not for those who are waiting for 30 years to go back to their houses.

370 is gone.
If it has hyphenated India with Pak, so let it be.
If UN is calling a close door meeting on Kashmir, let it.
If American jihadist IIhan Omar has concern about
Kashmir then I ask her to go to .... .
If internationalisation of kashmir has happened then I couldn't care less.
This is my country where a landmine is coming in the way of growth and development of country for last 70 years. Someone had to remove or diffuse this landmine.
Someone had to think about common kashmiri who were suffering because of terrorism.
Someone had to take the risk of jumping on this landmine.Modi govt has finally done it and I am sure situations in Kashmir will only improve.
It's better to die once than to die every day
