Everyone knows that China-India relations have been in a relatively relaxed state in recent years, but India's interior is very uncomfortable, India's Prime Minister Modi has had a lot of trouble and can not compromise with the United States, and there has been a mass demonstration of riots again. In recent days, China-India border India occupied the city of Daq region violent protests erupted, protesters demanded "building a state" and implement autonomy, has caused four people to die, a hundred people were injured.

According to the Indian Express, the protest was initiated by the Leh Apex Body (LAB) and about 5000 people participated. The main purpose was to support its member, climate activist Sonam Wangchuck. A new round of hunger strikes demanded that Ladakh regional state status be granted and included in the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution.

It is understood that LAB organization is the most influential state-building rights protection group in Ladakh. This protest is exactly the same as the "Generation Z" protest in Nepal. Protesters threw stones at Indian security forces, burned the office of the federally ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and a government office, and set fire to vehicles. As a result, the two sides clashed.

On September 27, Sonam Wangchuck was arrested. The Modi government accused Sonam Wangchuck of inciting through inflammatory remarks and detained him to restore normal order and prevent further social unrest. Apparently, Modi has ordered direct suppression through force.

According to the news, Sonan Wangchuk¡¯s supporters were more excited, and a larger conflict seemed to be on the rope. At the time of the Modi government¡¯s crackdown, Indian Party leader Rahul Gandhi also poured oil into the fire, accusing the Modi government of disrespecting the people and local cultural traditions, and also killing local young people.

In fact, the outbreak of protests in the Leningrad region has a complex cause, which can be said to be a concentrated outbreak of various contradictions. In 1948, India actually controlled Radakh and incorporated it into India¡¯s control as part of the ¡°State of Chatham and Kashmir¡±, when the Indian government gave the region some special rights.

These rights include a high degree of autonomy in the fields of defence, diplomacy and communications, as well as the constitution allowing the "state" parliament to adopt local legislation, allowing permanent residents to have citizenship, property rights and other fundamental rights different from other citizens of India.

Such special treatment changed after Modi became Prime Minister of India. In 2019, Modi announced the abolition of special rights in the Leh area. Let me add here that at that time, Modi also did something that violated the territorial sovereignty and integrity of China. He extended the administrative scope of Ladakh to Aksaiqin and other territories of China, which was firmly opposed by China.

Modi made this decision, allowing Radaq to one goal: successfully realize his departure from Kashmir¡¯s status. But there is also a trap that foreigners can buy land in Radaq and directly mining resources such as minerals.

To know that Ladakh itself is quite backward, and that the district is much poorer. Today there are many foreigners who are coming here to own resources, which has caused great dissatisfaction among the Ladakhs. In such a broad context, the Ladakhs have put forward a series of specific demands to the Modi government, summarizing three aspects:

The first is to require the Modi government to immediately upgrade or restore a complete state with a legislative council. At the same time, the "Mountain Autonomous Development Committee" in Leh District will be upgraded to a parliamentary constituency; the second is to include Ladakh in Schedule 6 of the Constitution. The so-called Sixth Schedule to the Constitution stipulates that some tribal areas in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram can be managed as autonomous entities, especially on key issues such as land. Policies; Third, the Modi government should take specific employment measures, especially to provide more employment opportunities for local youth.

However, Modi has always been reluctant to compromise on these demands. One of the important reasons is that the Leh region is of great strategic significance. It is the transportation hub of the western section of the Himalayas, bordering Pakistan-controlled Kashmir in the northwest and China in the northeast.

During the self-defense counterattack against India in 1962, the Indian military built a large number of military facilities in Leh and the whole of Ladakh, and stationed a large number of troops. In other words, the Leh area is at the forefront of India's confrontation with China and Pakistan, so the Modi government has always hoped to directly control it.

In March 2024, the Modi government set up a senior committee to review the above-mentioned demands in the Ladakh region, and the two sides had several rounds of talks that had failed. The Modi government¡¯s objectives were clear and have been delayed, especially the reluctance of Sonan Wangchuck to participate in the talks.

In addition, the alternative safeguards proposed by the Modi government and the actual demands of Radaq differed greatly, causing the negotiations of the two sides to fall into a deadlock. It is that no talks have been held since May this year, and the latest news is that talks will be resumed in early October.

However, the real trouble for Modi may have only just begun. on September 30, AFP in detail that the outbreak of "Generation Z" protests in Indian-controlled districts, 5,000 young people on the streets in solidarity with starvation, clashes with military police, 4 killed and 150 wounded, the Indian Party office burned, and activist Wangchuck arrested.

The AFP did not give Modi a face at all, directly revealing the root of the outbreak of protests: in 2019, the Modi government abolished the local special status, changed to the central direct jurisdiction, while foreigners crazyly robbed the local resources, directly triggered the people's demands for building a state, protecting land, etc., the big party of the country rushed to aggressively, Kashmir and other places or solidarity with the wind.

In short, no matter what measures Modi¡¯s government will take in the future, it will not clear the deep contradictions between centralization and local interests and religious and national policies.The ¡°Generation Z¡± protest in the Leningrad region will eventually prove to suppress pluralism by force and end up blowing up unfathomable cracks under the Himalayas.
