Gated communities in satellite townships, alongside army cantonments. I like the idea. This is the first step towards a gradual integration of J&K with the mainland. Rail link is already complete till Qazigund and construction is steaming ahead, whole state should be covered by 2020. Once that is done, there will be a gradual inflow of population from all across India . This should and would be followed by setting up industry in this state to give the locals employment, you cant expect them to rely on agriculture and tourism forever.
I really hope we are also able to tap the potential of Ladakh. An interesting project going on is the Rohtang tunnel. This will help bypass the terrible Rohtang Pass road and connect Manali to Spiti-Lahaul valleys and Ladakh, shortening travel time by 6 hours besides easing congestion. Currently it takes 22 hrs from Manali to Leh by road
Although all of this will take time, we are finally on the right track
