The politicians in Jammu & Kashmir have unfortunately exploited aspirations of the people purely for their personal ambitions and the politics of ambitions is not heading to any dead end even after seventy long years of political chaos. The successive central governments are to be blamed more for the current political mess than the mainstream political parties. Unfortunately the incumbent Narendra Modi led BJP Government at the centre like previous non BJP governments plans to encourage politics of ambitions against the whims and wishes of the people of Jammu & Kashmir. If corruption is the concern and development the priority of the incumbent central government in Jammu & Kashmir, the doors have to be shut not only for the dynasty politics but also for the political turn coats tending to go against the whims and wishes of the people. Unfortunately the leaders allowed free political space in the present hostile political atmosphere have been part of the political formations imposed over the people of Jammu & Kashmir against their whims and wishes from and unfortunately most of them are facing serious charges of corruption. If corruption is concern the government has not to be selective in its actions against the corrupt and if development is a priority the government has not to put the administration into the hands of those tainted bureaucrats against whom even the Jammu & Kashmir high court has passed on toughest strictures years ago. As far as the restoration of a genuine political process in Jammu & Kashmir is concerned, the government is not at liberty to deny the right to personal liberty and right to free political activity to any individual or group of individuals for furthering the political motives of the ruling party at the centre. For furthering the causes of democracy the policy of curbs and detentions has to end.
Desperate attempts to impose political turn coats over the people of Jammu & Kashmir would by the beginning of a new phase of the politics of ambitions and exploitations in Jammu and Kashmir.
Sooner the curbs and detentions end in Jammu & Kashmir, the better it would be for the furthering the causes of public aspirations. Though BJP leaders during their frequent visits to Kashmir are trying to exploit the emotions of tribal communities particularly Gujjars, Bakerwals and Paharis for furthering the causes of divisive politics in Jammu & Kashmir but the leaders commanding the support of tribal communities are deadly opposed to the political temptations of the saffron party in Jammu & Kashmir. Desperate attempts to impose political turn coats over the people of Jammu & Kashmir would by the beginning of a new phase of the politics of ambitions and exploitations in Jammu and Kashmir.
