Article 370 abrogation: Right intentions, Wrong Steps

When the makers of our Constitution used the term ‘India that is Bharat’, the implication was that the cultural strength of ancient Bharat would energise the modernistic thrust of resurgent India. It did for a while; India became a model for newly independent nations. Then new forces rose that damaged India’s position as the proud bearer of Bharat Varsha’s values. A hefty push in that direction has been given by the sensationalist style in which Jammu and Kashmir was broken up all of a sudden and reassembled to different specifications.
