  • From Insurgency to Militancy to Terrorism. by Balraj Puri* in 1989, A
    BALRAJ PURI Kashmir's Journey: From insurgency to militancy to terrorism. by Balraj Puri* * Director of the Institute of Jammu and Kashmir Affairs – Karan Nagar – Jammu – India In 1989, a massive Muslim insurgency erupted in Kashmir. A number of internal and external factors were responsible for it. Among them, was the "Rajiv-Farooq" accord towards the end of 1986, by virtue of which Farooq Abdullah, dismissed from power two years earlier, was brought back to power as interim chief minister (1987) after a deal with the Congress party. By vacating his role as the principal pro-India opposition leader, Farooq left the Muslim United Front, the first party based on a religious identity, as the only outlet for popular discontent. As the assembly election of 1987 had been rigged to facilitate his return to power, the people felt that there was no democratic outlet left to vent their discontent. Externally, the break up of the Soviet block where one satellite country after the other in East Europe got independence following protest demonstrations, was also a source of inspiration for the people of Kashmir who at last believed that "azadi" (azadi in Urdu or Farsi means personal liberty. Its first political connotation among the people has become, without a doubt, representative democracy) was round the corner if they followed the East Europe example. Furthermore, not far away, as the Soviet forces had pulled out from Afghanistan, harassed and vanquished by the Taliban who had the support of USA and of Pakistan, armed and trained Mujahids involved in that struggle became available and were diverted to Kashmir to support the local insurgency.

Physical Disengagement and Ideological Reorientation Among Militants in Kashmir: An Exploratory Study ABSTRACT This qualitative study employs semi-structured interviews to explore the phenomenon of militant disengagement as experienced by six former militants in Jammu and Kashmir. The paper seeks to understand how and why individuals who enthusiastically joined the militant campaign against the Indian state beginning in the late 1980s subsequently moved away – physically – from armed violence. The study also aims to shed light on the nature and extent of ideological evolution experienced by the same individuals before and/or after their physical departures from militancy. The paper attends closely to the interplay between these physical and ideological aspects of disengagement, asking – in the case of each interviewee – how one relates to the other.

  • INDIA in 2008 Domestic Turmoil and External Hopes
    INDIA IN 2008 Domestic Turmoil and External Hopes Sumit Ganguly Abstract The past year saw signifi cant domestic turmoil in India. The country con- fronted a series of terrorist attacks including the one in Bombay, witnessed ethno-religious violence, dealt with a resurgent Maoist (Naxalite) guerilla move- ment, and faced agitations from agricultural communities over the acquisition of land for industrialization. On the external front, India managed to consum- mate a critical civilian nuclear agreement with the U.S., after much domestic debate and contention. Keywords: Naxalite agitation, terrorism, U.S.-India civilian nuclear agreement, Nandigram, economic downturn Introduction Communal violence, terrorist attacks and bombings, and internal confl icts wracked signifi cant parts of India throughout 2008. In addition, a dramatic spike in global oil prices, coupled with rising food prices, delivered considerable exogenous shocks to the country’s economy. Late in the year, the acute fi nancial crisis in the U.S. began having an ad- verse, but limited, impact on India’s economy. Despite these myriad prob- lems stemming from both domestic and external sources, the country managed to clock a growth rate of 7.9% in the quarter ending in June.1 Sumit Ganguly is Professor of Political Science and holds the Rabin- dranath Tagore Chair in Indian Cultures and Civilizations at Indiana University in Bloom- ington.

  • Azadi!: Syed Ali Shah Gilani and the Movement for Political Self-Determination for Jammu and Kashmir
    Azadi!: Syed Ali Shah Gilani and the Movement for Political Self-Determination for Jammu and Kashmir By Yoginder Sikand Introduction Not many Kashmiri Muslims might share his particular hardliner version of Islam or his passionate advocacy of Kashmir‟s accession to Pakistan, but, still, 82-year old Syed Ali Shah Geelani commands widespread respect among his people for his firm stance on azadi or freedom of Jammu and Kashmir from Indian rule, a stance that he has never wavered from. Geelani‟s popularity among vast numbers of Kashmiri Muslims rests principally in the fact that he is seen as one Kashmiri leader who has never compromised with India, and who has had to face considerable personal privation, including long bouts of imprisonment, for denouncing what he, like many Kashmiris, regard as India‟s illegal occupation of Jammu and Kashmir and its violation on a massive scale of human rights in the region. With Kashmir up in flames again, Geelani‟s word is now almost law to the intrepid Kashmiri youth out in the streets defying the might of the Indian state with stones. The overwhelming response to his calls for strikes and demonstrations that have rocked the Kashmir Valley for several weeks now in protest against the killing of youths by Indian armed forces clearly indicates that Geelani is back at the centre-stage of Kashmir politics. It would not be an exaggeration to claim that he is regarded by many Kashmiri Muslims as the unparalleled icon of their resistance to Indian rule. Geelani is one of the few Kashmiri leaders to have written

MoPH has deployed some 40,000 volunteers, mainly women who are traveling from village to village and house to house across the country who would cover every district in the country with the exception of few areas that are inaccessible due to heavy snow. The vaccination campaign is part of the United Nations Global Polio Eradication Initiative spearheaded by WHO, UNICEF, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Rotary International. Afghanistan is among the seven countries, including Pakistan, India, Niger, Nigeria, Egypt, and Somalia, where polio is still endemic. According to Afghan MoPH, Afghanistan has made considerable progress in fighting the crippling disease. Last year only eight cases of the disease were recorded. Officials hope to eradicate the poliovirus in Afghanistan by the end of this year. http://www.irinnews.org/report.asp?ReportID=39126&amp;SelectRegion=Central_Asia&amp;SelectCountry=AFGHANISTAN http://www.reliefweb.int/w/rwb.nsf/6686f45896f15dbc852567ae00530132/e6c10eeae1596a2e49256e2700192a56?OpenDocumen t Afghan President Hamid Karzai signs country's new constitution into law Today, Afghan President Hamid Karzai signed Afghanistan’s new constitution into law in a ceremony attended by his ministers, foreign dignitaries and military officials at the foreign ministry in the Afghan capital Kabul.

  • Jammu and Kashmir Realities Revisited
    scholar warrior Jammu and Kashmir Realities Revisited CLAWS RESEARCH TEAM India’s Northern most state, for the past sixty years, has come to be identified world over as the ‘troubled state of Jammu and Kashmir’. Hence it comes as no surprise that even the United Nations (UN) and the United States of America (USA) have time and again referred to the Kashmir issue not as it pertains to only the Kashmir Valley, but to the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir. This has become possible with focused efforts of Pakistan and separatists, who have resorted to continuous and deliberate distortion of facts and realities. A lot of eminent analysts have written on various realities of the state in the past. Yet whatever has been written thus far seems to have had little or no effect on the rest of India, and even less on the world at large. Indian news channels continue to refer to the Kashmir imbroglio as being applicable to the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir. This is a distortion. A further distortion comes from the popular slogan, “Kashmir to Kanyakumari – India is one”, used symbolically as a reflection of Indian Nationhood. This slogan while epitomising the spirit of India is actually a misnomer as Kashmir is not the northern most part of India and neither is Kanyakumari the southernmost tip. Factually, the two ends are ‘Indira Col’ and ‘Indira Point’. In the physical plane, Kashmir comprises 6.98 per cent of the total land mass of undivided Jammu and Kashmir and about 15 per cent of the land mass of Jammu and Kashmir as presently with India.1 Kashmir is thus geographically, a very small portion of the larger state of Jammu and Kashmir, the other two major constituents being the Ladakh and Jammu Divisions.

Pakistan In an interview with Kommersant, a Russian daily, President Musharraf stated that the danger of a nuclear showdown between India and Pakistan has passed. The daily Nation (Pakistan) welcomes President Musharraf's remarks and adds that "serious attention ought to be paid to setting the political house in order to create internal stability. For we should never lose sight of the reality that wars may be fought with arms but are won with hearts." 2. India The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) received approval to build a Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) at Kalpakkam, near Chennai. Former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission M.R.
