There were two major developments in Jammu and Kashmir in the past couple of days. The Ramazan ceasefire was not extended and two days after that, the BJP pulled out from the PDP led government.

The state is currently under Governor’s rule and President of India approved of the same. With the rule of the Governor in place, the Army is expected to be tougher in a bid to flush out terrorists and restore peace in the Valley. The Army would also look to improve the situation along the border.

It began with Burhan Wani and ended with his entire gang being cleaned out. However there are still some irritants who remain.
