India dangerous place for Minorities: Report KT NEWS SERVICE. Dated: 12/17/2020 1:46:21 PM ‘Civic space completely erased within democratic framework in Kashmir’ JAMMU, Dec 16: While deeming India as a ‘Dangerous Place for Minorities’, the South Asia State of Minorities report 2020 has noted that Muslim-majority Kashmir where regressive constitutional changes in August 2019 were accompanied by a communication blackout, mass detentions, and a movement lockdown demonstrates “how civic space can be sought to be completely erased, within a formal democratic framework”.
