(Commentary by Neeti Nair, associate professor of history and Public Policy Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars) BJP is so convinced about the lack of support for its move in Kashmir that it has brought in even more troops to maintain ‘law and order’. Kashmir is in lockdown. The special status of Jammu and Kashmir has been ‘scrapped’ as though it were a mere doodle, and not the only semblance of legal fiction that continues to tie India to Kashmir. To be fair to the Bharatiya Janata Party, this had always been on its agenda.
