What storm is going to come again in Kashmir?

The Dhaka Times Desk At present, there is a 'calm before the storm' in Kashmir. And because of that, it is thought that what storm is going to come again in Kashmir?

So far no major protests have been reported in Kashmir. But many people are commenting on this slow environment. According to some, this atmosphere in Kashmir is like the 'calm before the storm'.

According to media reports, BBC has made a report on this issue after visiting various places including Srinagar, the capital of Kashmir. According to the report, the people of Indian-administered Kashmir have come up with various ways to lighten their minds in the suffocating situation that is now prevailing in Indian-administered Kashmir.

Parks in the main city of Srinagar have seen increased crowding. Many people have sat down to fish across the Dal Lake, which is as beautiful as the picture. Many people drive to different parts of the city to meet friends or relatives. Many were also seen roaming the streets.

Security barricades and barbed wire fences have now been removed from many places in Srinagar city. There is also no sale of food during blackout or rationing. Small markets open for a few hours a day.

A month after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's ruling BJP stripped Indian-administered Kashmir of its autonomy, the Muslim-majority state may be slowly returning to some sort of 'normalcy'. The move by the central government made Kashmir and Jammu into two separate Union Territories and imposed tight security measures. Government employee Asma Kureishi also brought her family for a visit to the park! Despite this, the BBC correspondent does not think that normalcy has returned to Kashmir.

A school teacher said, the scope of our life has become very small, our mind is blocked. As soon as you go out on the street, you can see that other than the drug store, other shops and businesses are closed. Due to strict restrictions, it is difficult to find local newspapers.

With the entire state shrouded in tight security, it is almost certain that no large-scale violence has taken place so far. But with conflicting reports on the death toll at the hands of security forces, frustration and anger simmer under the guise of 'normalcy'.

It is really difficult to say what will happen in Kashmir in the future. Many people in Delhi, the capital of India, think that Kashmiris are tired of the violence, once they Mr. Modi's promise of employment and development will be welcomed. But there are very few people in Kashmir who support this.

Since 1990, at least 40,000 people have been killed in the insurgency in Kashmir. This rebellion has now begun the end of the day? Or now again another round of bloody rebellion is going to start?

It has been observed in the past that several years after an incident in Kashmir, a major uprising took place. For example, the 1963 uprising occurred 10 years after the dismissal and arrest of National Conference leader Sheikh Abdullah. Likewise, the 1989 militancy began two years after disputed local elections.

Sumanta Bose, Professor of International and Comparative Politics at the London School of Economics, said that the current situation in Kashmir is more likely to become explosive than previous incidents. Only time will tell what really happens.
