Summary The book discusses the issue of autonomy in Indias federal system and its precision and focused nature. It inquires into the various aspects of the problem autonomy of the states and its emerging trends with special reference of Jammu and Kashmir State autonomy. The book addresses many controversial unanswered question like Should India adopt and opt for dual or competitive model of federalism, which has long since been discarded even in the land of its origin or should we evolve robust indigenous solutions to our problem of autonomy of States? To change the metaphor, do we choose a regression model or a development model of our federal polity? All these discussions which deserve sustained citizen interest and national debate, have been answered in the present book. Dr. Waseem Ahmed Sofi teaches Political Science at the Government Degree College, Jammu, India. He has written for multiple newspapers and magazines like The Rising Kashmir, The Rising Truth, and The Kashmir Reader
