The relationship is in very good health,” “The trajectory has always been upwards. As in any relationship, there are issues.

S Jaishankar said : “It (Article 370) was a temporary provision which is not often used in the analysis of events… The provision had actually become dysfunctional. It was being arbitraged by some narrow set of people for their own gains. By doing so, they were impeding development and feeding a sense of separatism. The separatism was being utilised by Pakistan to carry out cross-border terrorism” “So, here was an incoming government which could either do something that was done for the last several decades but was unsuccessful, or do something differently. We tried to do something differently,”
