Kashmir Situation in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir is deteriorating with the passing of every day as people of both of the reason have stood up against each other because of the dispute caused by land transfer issue. It is a well-known fact that people of Jammu are pro-Indians and the Kashmiris are pro-Pakistanis. Kashmir is the area that is worst hit by the Pakistan backed militants. Pakistani army and ISI provides financial and arms’ help to the militants and also facilitates their infiltration into the Indian territory by providing them cover-fire against the Indian Security Forces present at the border.

Jammu The present crisis has deepened because of the conflicting interests of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. At one hand Kashmiris agitated against the state government’s decision of land transfer to the Amarnath Shrine Board that resulted in revocation of the order and downfall of the government. But one the other hand it infuriated the Hindu population of the Jammu region who took to streets against the government’s order of revocation of the land transfer. They have blocked the national highway that is the  only road link between Indian and Valley. It will affect the Kashmir a lot as all the essential supplies to the region have been blocked. As apples is the main crop of Kashmiris and it is the peak season time they are unable to send it to India and abroad because of blockade.

Rift Agitations in both of the reasons are spearheaded by the hardliner fundamentalists. One one hand are Hurriyat leaders and on the other end are Hindu leaders backed by fundamentalist organizations like Shiv Sena, Bajrang Dal, RSS and BJP. Though it is headed by political leaders but it has taken a communal turn. Now both of the communities have taken the issue of land transfer as a religious matter that has prompted even women and children to take to streets. It is a very tough situation and there is a very little hope that government will find a middle path to solve the problem. But first priority should be given to control the situation. But it has become clear from the situation that the state is heading towards a split.
