Because gender equality and minority rights points are being used as a greenhorn to subjugate an entire minority. Article 370 giving them autonomy is gone, and not only their autonomy is gone but the state has been degraded as a Union Territory directly under Federal control.
A law which has been abrogated by locking down 10 Million people, and not allowing them the right to protest. I think we all know why the law has been forced in.

Stone pelting was a regular affair and long term curfew has been enforced previously in 2008 and after Burhan Wani's death. The Federal Government has to ensure security of the people to prevent bloodshed.
- iamshs 7y agoAh, security of people trope. Good to know so much security has been ensured 10 million people are caged.
- sbmthakur 7y agoIt might be a trope for you, but not for the people who routinely get gunned down by Pakistan backed terrorists and incur significant bloodshed in the process.
- iamshs 7y agoSound reason to take away constitutional protections of people without any discussion, caging them and shutting them down. Security of the people trope has always eroded protections of populace, and this one is not any different. Except Hindu nationalists are cheering it on, as Muslims are being shown their place.
- sbmthakur 7y agoYour "Muslims are being shown their place" has no basis. Why there is no lockdown in Kerala and UP which have a good percentage of Muslim population? Curfew and communication is often enforced at other places as well, especially the ones where riots have happened for some reason.

- cscurmudgeon 7y ago370 and autonomy is just a dog whistle for subjugating minorities and women. You didn’t answer my question: Why wait to fix minority/ women rights for 70 years? Kashmir’s minorities have drastically decreased in the last 70 years due to large scale systematic cleansing and India has increased its minority population. India is the lesser evil.
