More Indians seem to have found their way to the forum suddenly! Surprise surprise.

in 1984, the voter turn out was 68 percent. It was 78 percent in 1987. That was before the insurgency.

As we have mentioned before, Voting in Kashmir is not an acceptance of India.

why is voting in numbers not acceptance? It is a globally accepted fact that exercise of ones rights is just that - acceptance of the franchise. If you think about the psychological aspects - if someone is rejecting something they will have nothing to do with it voluntarily. Here we have them voting in great numbers. And as you point out, not just this election but in prior ones as well.

The only non-acceptance is of these facts from people who do not want to admit that Pakistan’s decades of proxy war and claims on Kashmir have been utterly defeated and rejected in Kashmir.
