Hasn’t been Kashmir in nearly a decade. The Indian military invaded and formally began occupying the province back in 2015. They’ve got something like 900,000 troops spread in and across the country as of 2019. Roughly one soldier for every eight Kashmiri citizens.
We hear virtually nothing of it in Western media, of course. Modi’s India is a western ally, so it is beyond repute. But the invasion of Kashmir has created its own regional refugee crisis and international heightening of tensions not seen since the worst days of the Cold War.
