Independent Sources: Rocking the Ethnic Vote

On this edition of Independent Sources, we explore some politicians' drive to court the ethnic vote. Is this just a last ditch effort by losing candidates to increase their numbers? We talk about the Kashmir conflict. Can this region really become independent and can the violence be curbed. Then our series 'Journalists Under Fire' begins with a look at imprisoned reporters in China.
