JAMMU AND LADAKH REGIONS OF J&K ARE LIKE BANGLADESH BEFORE IT WAS COMPELLED TO BREAK AWAY FROM PAKISTAN.

In order to sustain the myth of appeasing the “Muslim” identity of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) it has been left out of the delimitation exercise, a long overdue constitutionally approved process pending for this State as an exception arising out of arbitrary and blatant Central government discrimination. Jammu region has 28,92,290 voters while Kashmir valley has only 25,46,913. Out of the total electorate of 56,12,149, Leh and Ladakh’s share is 1,72, 000. Yet Jammu has only 37 Assembly seats to the Muslim majority Kashmir valley’s 46. Jammu has only 2 Lok Sabha seats though the Muslim majority area of Kashmir has 3 for no ostensible reason apart from the decades old Muslim appeasement state policy of India. When it comes to allocation of Central funds to the State and doling out welfare schemes Jammu is given step-brotherly treatment even though its geographical area is 26, 000 sq kms which is far larger than the Muslim majority valley’s mere 15,000 sq kms.
