The struggle in Kashmir is a people's movement. This gives it legitimacy. All the attempts by the State to portray it as a planned, funded and organised monstrosity, when the State itself fits that description; and the inverse attempts to prove the State to be individual, emotional and human, when the Kashmiris are all those things, are just a perverse endeavour to usurp the legitimacy which belongs to the Kashmiri people.
