Faulty analysis
This refers to the article on Patel and Nehru by Ashiq Hussain Bhat. It seems the author has been in a hurry while making the analysis or he has read some new book on the issue We have ample evidence to prove that there was a wide gap between Sardar Patel and Jawaharlal Nehru vis-à-vis Kashmir issue. Patel had always perceived Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah as a threat and he had no faith in him. Had Indian Army not arrived on October 27, Kashmiris would not have witnessed bloodshed. It is important that we analyze things properly so that history is not distorted.
