Boycott to ballot box: Kashmir votes in protest | BBC News


Indian Administered Kashmir has seen its highest voter turnout in more than three decades.

Elections are normally boycotted, seen as a way for the Indian government to legitimize control over the region.

Voting has become a way for many Kashmiris to protest that move.
