Stephen P. Cohen (eds.), South Asia After the Cold War (Boulder: Westview
1993). See especially the chapters by Pervaiz I.Cheema and Lt.-Gen. M.L.Chibber.

Some elements of the Bharatiya Janata Party have recommended that Kashmir be
repopulated with Hindus, once its special constitutional status (Article 370) was
eliminated. The Andorra precedent of the thirteenth century—a treaty between
Spain and France guaranteeing Andorra's internal autonomy—has been discussed
by Jean Alphonse Bernard of Paris; Jagmohan, one of the key principles in the
most recent crises in Kashmir, has written that the long-term solution rests in a
revival of the Indian spirit. See his own record of Kashmir's crises of Kashmir in My
Frozen Turbulence (note 33).

circumstances were right), can be found in Kanti P.Bajpai and others, Jammu and
Kashmir: An Agenda for the Future (Delhi: Delhi Policy Group 1999).
