IT was with a sense of déjà vu that one heard
the new slogan coined by Narendra Modi to delineate the future policy on
Kashmir. One could have dismissed the slogan as an obiter dictum freshly minted
on the spur of the moment. But the significance of a statement made from the
ramparts of the Red Fort cannot be taken lightly. Modi said that we should
treat the Kashmiri separatists in accordance with the rhyme: “Na gaali se, na
goli se, balki gale se lagake (neither with abuse, nor with the bullet, rather
embrace them in your arms).”
