PTC Industries is investing Rs 1,000 cr in 4 manufacturing plants in UP, has already started supplying titanium parts to BAE Systems for its M-777 howitzers that India also uses.

Strengthens one’s initial belief that these constitutional changes do not translate into anything worthwhile, either internally with the good people of Kashmir, or extetnally with Pakistan. A leap of faith to believe that a new, more cordial and trusting relationship can be forged with Kashmiris once they realise that no substantive political change in their status is possible. 2. One vacuum that does not seem to have been thought through is about who will lead the politics of Kashmir.
