Thats exactly it martine right now were just being bogged down in the usual parliamentary procedure but home minister ahmed shah which is really been spearheading the governments push on this in the lower house of parliament has said some interesting things in the past hour he claims that this is the governments move in revoking the autonomy for indian music a shmear will actually help build a bridge between indians and kashmiris he says the wall is now been taken down and he says this split taking the area and making to 2 territories will one day be undone and the region can become a state again while also again reiterating indias position that the pakistan and mr kashmir is also an integra part of india now as you mentioned this is expected to pass because of the governments majority in the lower house but whats interesting is on monday this also easily passed the upper house of parliament where the government is in a minority and thats because theres actually been a large opposition support this idea of taking away autonomy or special status regions and uniting india has a broad appeal even in the opposition and the public at large. New delhi lets go over to kemal. For about and so weve got the head of the army saying that hes prepared to do whatever is necessary to stand by the people of kashmir.

Any adventure on august on so indeed Strong Language coming from the civilian leadership. The military and at the same time the leader of the opposition Shahbaz Sharif also drawing their support behind the government and saying that the people of pakistan should not take this lying little bright and then in islam a bad we understand the call and hes hes had was talking to a visiting u. S. Allegation sensibly about afghanistan but no doubt this will come up and also suggesting that he will launch a diplomatic initiative. Absolutely the diplomatic offensive or something that august on i started to undertake it really tried to go to the Security Council it will also go to the International Court of justice and also saying that they knew it would be open as far as progress on were concerned so as far as the government is concerned it is coming out tough language but the big question here is how far are both countries reeling to take this any escalation were snowball into a bigger conflict that is their fear and right now all eyes are on the line of control also known as the line of their white with separate. Army. Live images offer about thank you very much for that well as the parliament of i think pakistan talk about the developments in indian administered kashmir a reminder of what that lore is the law that granted significant to talk to me to the disputed region article 370 is now repealed and it allowed indian administered kashmir to make its own laws except him finance Defense Foreign Affairs and communications and it means that the residents of the state lived under different laws from the rest of the country masses including property in a ship and citizenship and as weve already mentioned the state is now being split indian administered kashmir which includes hindu majority will be directly run from new delhi but will have a local assembly dock which is largely made up of buddhists and shia muslims will be a Union Territory as well but it wont have its own assembly. Now People Living in indian administered kashmir have been reacting to the military crackdown some say basic necessities are hard to find. Me at this time my wife does not have medicine i am compelled to get medicine but there are no medical facilities this keeps on happening but there should be some facilities for people if they are not well where will they go. At least they should have informed as if they wanted us to implement any rules or regulations at least they should have thought about if we could arrange necessities and commodities this is not india that i believe. Is a democratic india. Or india. Whatever your religion or your region. Right now we can see today. Who is an advocate with the russian. Song nationalists organization is then as the r. S. S. Which is closely allied to the ruling b j p joining us live now from the indian capital new delhi thank you very much indeed for talking to us this decision to revoke article 370 i understand you support wholeheartedly and yet it is being decried by so many sections as being illegal unconstitutional and is likely to face several legal challenges. Let us be very clear that this is not a part of the government is an independent social organization Worlds Largest social organization that has to be kept in mind one thing yes we support the question of partial to 70 and the bifurcation of the state of Jammu And Kashmir to say that it is illegal unconstitutional and invalid i dont agree with it the reason being busy if one beats the language of 370 it is very clear that it was transitional and into. The moment when you see these 3 words which clearly means it was only for the purposes of interim government the prominent government was established actually so this. Was supposed to go automatically the moment the prominent government was stopped. It was only for the transitional forces and therefore it was it was illegally continued for a very very Long Time Bank pollak ok thats an interpretation i havent heard before but if it is if it was just a transitional arrangement and it and it is and it is right and valid that it is now taken off the Constitution Constitutional books why has it been accompanied with a vast number of extra soldiers we think tens of thousands perhaps why is there a lockdown in terms of the internet in terms of the Telephone Service and why are local political leaders being held under house arrest. But if you look at the history of. German catch me what happened was there were few political families dynasty families would ruling and the and it was in their interest that they never wanted to feel them across it to be stopped and so whatever huge amount of money was going from the Central Government to the State Government was you know taken away and they were not reaching the people so it would it is in their interests to foment trouble them create law and order problem and hence its a precautionary step that will stick and and you you will also recall the role played by pakistan in cross border terrorism which has really troubled india for a very very long time and we were also expecting that the pakistan will again because of these this particular step will try to forment trouble to cross border infiltration a few days back about 7 people of the Border Action team which is one of the. Busy Border Agency was trying to cross over india and they were killed and they have even written right vehicle leg of these of their soldiers i mean you make this is the state of affairs at the border this is because the step. You mention the critical word democracy wouldnt it have been more democratic to have taken the views of the people of indian administered kashmir before the government acted. You know people are presuming that the consultative process is not taken place it has taken place and it was told in parliament by the home minister a mature that they had done by District Conservative since last 2 years they in fact off to the local body is also the local elections have taken place where 75 percent of the people wanted and their heads of the local bodies were consulted the widest conservation was done by the Central Government through interlocutor which was appointed 2 years ago and therefore to see that the consultation process has not taken place is a wrong statement right so why is it then that people are considering this move by the government as being part of an anti Muslim Campaign which has been carried out in propagated by the b j p government and now mr modi in his 2nd term and it must be said your organization the r. S. S. Which is considered to be a Hindu Nationalist Organization that will not stand for minorities being in india. As a starter in do nationals of my vision its a nationalist organization whose members are cutting across all religions that character has to be maintained secondly india is a secular country there is nothing called busy muslim majority or hindu majority everybodys supposed to live together everybody has the Constitutional Rights and such mean if you recall about 56 lakh hindus look through no overnight in 1990 and there is still waiting to be have located the Biggest Party that was committed in kashmir was an 198990 and then they are also demanding their rights this is one way of you know sending them back home their lying in various camps all over india in general in delhi in very protected condition their properties have been illegally taken over and sold by many people so that this will be stored the balance the secular fabric of the country but the accusation is of course that those people in the indian administered kashmir have long felt marginalized and neglected and that this movie is going to add to their their grievances. You know if you look at what the 70 gave to crush me was not the special status it prevented you know the industries from buying land and setting up industries various laws like marriage probably bishan laws are not applicable Child Marriage just take place there is a woman discrimination if if a medieval when met hes somebody from outside she loses all her right property everything she has no in american. Right then so there are a lot of discriminatory laws also right to education which is a fundamental right up because people all over india is not applicable in Jammu And Kashmir there are other laws like teachers training very you have to give good training to teachers doctors not applicable so you can skip. The endless talk as a backward country apart from the fact the Central Bureau of investigation which which is the premier investigating agency for you know investigating crimes and prosecuting crimes and got a cases of corruption there to destruction is also not there so we had vita spared you know corruption in Jammu And Kashmir the money sent by the government was pocketed by a few 3 or 4 quality good families huge packages were going but they were not reaching the ground so this will distort balance and ensure that the all Round Development takes place there. Thank you very much indeed for talking to us.

S. In big numbers a beautiful thing to watch im not sure many people thought when the stock market started to tumble that it was a beautiful thing to watch i think a lot of people are pretty nervous others that are also nervous usually nervous or American Farmers because of course it all of this this escalation American Farmers have already been hit hard by the fact that china is no longer buying a lot of their Agricultural Products and the president seems aware of that because in his 2nd tweet he talks about the Ame
