💨 Abstract

Farooq, son of Kashmir's Sheikh, repeatedly expressed the need for Kashmir to align with Delhi, starting in 1981. In 1983, he turned down Mrs Gandhi's alliance offer, citing his father's popularity. After her dismissal of him in 1984, Farooq felt deeply betrayed, as she had previously supported his political rise.
