	Explaining the Kashmir insurgency: political mobilization and institutional decay.
		As a consequence, the national political leadership, from Jawaharlal Nehru onward, adopted a unified stand on the internal politics of Jammu and Kashmir: as long as the local political bosses avoided raising the secessionist bogey; the government in New Delhi overlooked the locals' political practices, corrupt or otherwise.
		In the 1987 election, considered to be the most compromised in Kashmir's recent history; the Congress Party and the National Conference jointly contested the state assembly elections; they were opposed by the Muslim United Front (MUF), a conglomeration of political parties.
		As long as the leadership of the National Conference did not raise the prospect of secession, the national government in New Delhi permitted the party wide latitude.(18) Consequently, the National Conference was free to engage in various forms of electoral malfeasance and skullduggery.

	Kashmir: The Whole Truth - Part 1 (by Shams Rehman) - Media Monitors Network

		The reason why he felt the Congress and the National Conference could come together to form an alternative Government in the State was that the Central Government had spoken in terms of greater autonomy for Jammu and Kashmir.
		The truth, though, is that it has generally been accepted over the past half century or more that the Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir should be a Kashmiri Muslim, if only for the fact that it is the only Muslim majority State in the Union.
		I heard the anchor saying that Omar Abdullah has offered a National Conference - Indian National Congress alternative to the PDP-led coalition headed by Chief Minister, Mufti Mohammad Sayeed of which the Congress is a partner and indeed has a Deputy Chief Minister in place.

	kas_autonomy
		Even though furor over the Autonomy resolution passed earlier by the Jammu and Kashmir (JandK) State Legislature has subsided and its news worthiness overshadowed by recent events pertaining to the ill fated cease-fire and initiation of a political dialogue with militants, there is a need to put the Autonomy debate in a proper context.
		After all it the same JandK government that has questioned the jurisdiction of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) over the State which was however rejected by the Supreme Court, and is currently in dispute with the National Commission for Minorities (NCM) for denying minority status to Kashmiri Pandits.
		The solution to Kashmir’s economic and political morass lies in true democratization of its people and removal of artificial fetters like the Article 370 that have held back its growth and sapped its vitality.
