The Rs 3 lakh-limit is aimed to ensure that transactions are made using credit or debit cards, cheques or drafts which can be easily tracked.

Alive and Kicking: The Kashmir Dispute Forty Years Later I. Introduction The Kashmir dispute between India and Pakistan involves a struggle between two powers for the possession of a tract of territory which each wants for its own valid reasons. The stakes are of major economic, political and strategic significance to Pakistan, while to India, Kashmir has become a symbol of national prestige and inter- national justice.1 Charges of aggression and violations of interna- tional law have been asserted by both parties. In considering a solu- tion to the Kashmir dispute, it is necessary to look beyond the blatant facts and see the elements that gave rise to the dispute and the circumstances under which it occurred. A purely legalistic approach never solves large political problems. With this in mind, this Comment begins with an examina- tion of the roots of the conflict: Kashmir's economy, geography, predominantly Moslem population and Hindu ruler.

    Introduction Insurgency in Jammu Region by Lov Puri

    INTRODUCTION INSURGENCY IN JAMMU REGION BY LOV PURI Introduction : The present project seeks to contribute to the studies of militancy in Jammu and Kashmir state by focusing attention on its rather neglected regional aspects. It concentrates on the origin and growth of militancy in Jammu region of the state. It was found that the causes of origin and various stages of growth of militancy were different from these in Kashmir. It started much later in Jammu and persisted even after it visibly declined in Kashmir. Its character, composition and objectives in the two region also varied. The distinctive character of militancy is due to its special features like geography, ethnic-religious composition and socio-political situation., This as long as militancy comprised youth from the Kashmir valley and was inspired by ideology of Kashmir nationalism, it did not have much appeal in ethnically different region of Jammu, But when youth from PoK and Punjab part of Pakistan joined the militant movement and it turned from a Kashmir to a Muslim movement , its response in Kashmir declined but improved in Jammu which was ethnically closer to the new militants. The Hindu backlash against mass killings of innocents which was special feature of militancy in Jammu as also lapses and excesses of the security forces, in areas remote from the gaze of media and the human rights activists , too, contributed a vicious circle of distrust. As Jammu had much less share in political power which is more concentrated in the hands of the Kashmiri leadership , the resultant frustration often got communal outlet which feeded the militant movement.

In January 1858, Lord Canning proceeded to Allahabad and formed the North Western Province excluding Delhi division. The seat of power was thus shifted from Agra to Allahabad. This was followed by the transfer of the High Court from Agra to Allahabad in 1868. In 1856, Awadh was placed under the Chief Commissioner. The districts were later merged with the North Western Province and began to be known as ‘North Western Provinces and Oudh’ in 1877. The entire province came to be known as the ‘United Provinces of Agra and Oudh’ in 1902. First election for the Legislative Council was held in 1920 and it was constituted in Lucknow in 1921. Since the governor, ministers and secretaries to governor had to be in Lucknow, the then governor Sir Harcourt Butler changed his headquarters from Allahabad to Lucknow.

In particular, it develops a strong link between the advent of cross-border militant attacks and the potential for escalation to nuclear-level conflict. A survey of three major case studies—the 2001 “Twin Peaks” crisis, the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and the 2016 Uri incident—suggests that a number of changing contextual and strategic factors contribute to the increasing destabilization of the status quo. These factors are as follows: Pakistan’s acquisition/posturing of tactical nuclear warheads, India’s shift from a strategy of coercive diplomacy to persuasive compellance, and the growing internal security threat that violent extremists pose within Pakistan.

(J&K) ** Shaheen Showkat Dar, Assistant Professor in the Department of Strategic and Regional Studies University of Jammu. 180006. (J&K) Abstract: Geopolitical significance is an important aspect of relation between states which have common borders. In case of India and Pakistan, geopolitical deliberations owe their significance to the very act of partition of India into two independent states and Kashmir as a disputed and divided territory between them. In this context, this paper will analyse the geo-political significance of Kashmir for India and Pakistan. There are strong evidences in the scholarly literature that the two states are creating an atmosphere of chaos, hostility and their citizens are battling with insecurities of poverty, illiteracy and underdevelopment. The duo states are acting as oppressor in Kashmir where thousands of people has been died and left their homes due to Indo-Pak hostility. The panorama of peace and human rights from last 24 years is in murky. Therefore, the geo-political, significance of Kashmir has put India and Pakistan on formidable wars from the last 65 years. The root cause of instability and hostility revolves around Kashmir, a landlocked territory, a bone of confrontation and a contributory cause of Indo- Pak hostility from the day one of their independence.
  • Kashmir Conflict

    Kashmir Conflict

    K a s h mi r C o n f l i c t : A S t u d y o f W h a t L e d t o t h e I n s u r g e n c y i n K a s h m i r V a l l e y & P r o p o s e d F u t u r e S o l u t i o n s By P r iy an k a Bak ay a and S u meet Bh at t i 1 Introduction Throughout ancient times, the breathtakingly beautiful Valley of Kashmir has stood for peaceful contemplation, intellectual advancement and religious diversity co- existing in an atmosphere of tolerance for the most part. In the modern geopolitical era, this same diversity, evident from the blend of Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism in this single state, has made it a center of warfare rather than cultural advancement. In the late 1980s, an insurgency in the valley threatened not only to rip Kashmir apart, but also pull the rest of the world into a dangerous war. In this paper, we will examine the major reasons for the insurgency, and why it only gained momentum some 40 years after India’s partition. Finally, we will explore some of the modern-day proposed solutions to the ongoing conflict over Kashmir. In order to gain a better understanding of why the insurgency of 1987-89 took place, we will examine the origins and development of the Kashmir independence movement.
