Former BSF Boss: "The anti-Muslim, Hindutva approach of BJP in Kashmir is damaging"
What worries him more, though, is the chest-thumping of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). It irks him to see how soldiers in this country have been made a mascot for the government. The government's constant invoking of the " veer jawan" sentiment for every issue from demonetisation to student agitations is pointless to him, probably even counterproductive. "There is so much jingoism and this is what this ruling party can best do," Rammohan says. "It ignores the real issues of internal security."...
But he stresses that the government should not be harsh on Kashmiris; it should deal with the Kashmiris with a little more compassion, instead. He finds fresh images of students coming out in school uniforms to pelt police with stones on the streets of Kashmir disturbing and insists that the government's anti-Muslim approach needs to be changed.
"The anti-Muslim and Hindutva approach of BJP in Kashmir is damaging," he argues, "You have to tell the public of Kashmir that you are above all religion. Once you give the feeling that you are pro-Hindu, you cannot operate in that place," he says.
Rammohan lays the blame for poor handling of Kashmir on National Security Advisor Ajit Doval. "Doval is a brilliant officer but he is behaving like a 'sycophant' to the BJP," Rammohan says. "The NSA has to be scrupulously neutral but Doval is favouring the Rightist approach of the ruling party. He cannot keep quiet when the party takes the wrong approach while handling security issues. When the party does something which is violating the Constitution, the NSA should stand up and point out that this is wrong."
