Jammu, Oct 22: A new book looks at the riveting history of Jammu and Kashmir from the time of its political and geographic consolidation to the abrogation of the state''s special status.
''Ten Studies in Kashmir: History and Politics'' by educationist and Padma Shri recipient Prof K N Pandit was released at a function at the Jammu University.
