The ‘unholy alliance’ between the BJP and the PDP has fallen in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, followed by the imposition of governor’s rule. The first ever UN report which elaborated on the human rights violations taking place in J&K has been readily dismissed by the government and media, without any concrete discussion on the allegations in the report. Human rights activist Gautam Navlakha talks about the contents of this report, and what the future holds for the troubled state.
