Kashmir Diary: Psychology of Militancy by Major General Arjun Ray (Hardcover)

Description

Major General Arjun Ray is what in army parlance, is called a ‘thinking soldier’, and in his book, first by a serving officer, trudges a thin line between classified information and subtle dissent. You have to read between the lines'”. —India Today “Major General Arjun Ray’s book was a big media event. Never before had a serving General written a first-hand account of a current sensitive military campaign in Jammu & Kashmir.” — Sunday “Major General Ray has drawn attention to the four core issues: that the people of Kashmir are the centre of gravity, not the militants; low intensity conflict encompasses a three-dimensional thrust-the government, the people and the security forces; in militancy who is right and who is wrong is irrelevant and ultimately what matters is how the people perceive something to be right or wrong.”
