Judges ignoring Indian government’s abuses in Occupied Kashmir: The Economist

ISLAMABAD, Oct 4 (APP):The Indian courts have no urgency to hear the petitions, challenging the government’s move of abrogating the special status of Occupied KashmirValley, where seven million people are facing a continuous lockdown for
the last two months.

The overwhelmingly Muslim slice of the state, has been under virtual siege by some 500,000 itchy-fingered Indian troops. Wielding draconian anti-terror laws, the government has arrested hundreds, not for any crime but to prevent protests, the London-based weekly ‘The Economist’ said in its article published on Friday.

“To the Supreme Court, however, none of this seems particularly urgent,”
the article said while mentioning the delays by the Indian judiciary in taking
up the cases related to Jammu and Kashmir.
