BBC News - HARDtalk, Iltija Mufti

Iltija Mufti on the revocation of the special autonomous status of Kashmir.

Stephen Sackur speaks to Iltija Mufti, the daughter of former chief minister of Kashmir Mehbooba Mufti, who is currently in detention.

It has been two months since India revoked the special autonomous status of Jammu and Kashmir, and Delhi still has the territory in a form of lockdown. Political leaders are detained, troops are on the streets and communication links are disrupted. The Modi government seems confident its dramatic cancellation of a 70-year-old dispensation has worked, but what of Kashmiri feeling? Stephen Sackur speaks to Iltija Mufti, the daughter of former chief minister of Kashmir Mehbooba Mufti, who is currently in detention. Do Kashmiris have any choice but to accept their new reality?
