Kashmir - A Wrangle Since Its Birth

Kashmir  - Article 370, Militants ,Armed Forces , Patharbaaz , Algawadi netas......and so much more comes to one's mind as soon as the word Kashmir is heard.


Where did its beauty ,lakes, mountains, culture vanish amidst of all the violence. Remember once we called it heaven on earth. How blessed India is to have a heaven in its country....but wait in today's scenario no one want's to visit this heaven.


SO WHAT LED TO THIS SITUATION???


For knowing this we need to go back a little in history.


Maharaja hari singh, Sheikh Abdullah 
and Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru- all prominent 

personalities in one frame


Indian state was declared independent and also Pakistan was formed now the princely states in India were given a choice to join either India or Pakistan. Most of them opted for India except the few. Kashmir's then king Maharaja HARI SINGH...........................
Signed the instrument of accession to the Indian PM Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru on 26th October 1947. But the Pakistani borne pathan terrorists attacked Kashmir taking the area as much as possible till Indian troops arriving in region presently  known as POK (Pakistan occupied Kashmir).  These terrorists attacked because people of J&K wanted to join Pakistan . After this the undeclared war continued for two years . The issue was taken to UN which stated that the public plebiscite would be held on deciding over the issue. 

The conditions were:

1.Pakistan to remove its forces from PoK


2.India should remove its forces


3.A public plebiscite to be held


As the first condition never occurred so the 2nd couldn't take place and similarly the 3rd.



The present map of J&K

In all this a special law was passed  In Parliament known as article 370 and also supporting it article 35A.

Article 370 of the Indian constitution is an article that gives autonomous status to the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The article is drafted in Part XXI of the Constitution: Temporary, Transitional and Special Provisions.


Article 35A of the Indian Constitution is an article that empowers the Jammu and Kashmir state's legislature to define “permanent resident” of the state and provide special rights and privileges to those permanent residents which are excluded for non-permanent residents.

Further part of kashmir went to china during Indo-China war .

MY VIEWS OVER PRESENT  SITUATION

People in kashmir have given different parties chance to solve their issues,but none of them really gave a thought to it everyone have mentioned kashmir issue as a political agenda in order to gain votes and win elections over the years without addressing the main issues. 
All these somewhere struck the sentiments of young kashmiris who saw lack pf opportunities and facilities in their region and anti national leaders saw this as an opportunity to convert these young individuals towards guns by showing the failures of government as failure of indian state towards KASHMIR. 

But recently  steps taken by our government, armed forces , journalists towards the issues of kashmir have turned somewhat fruitful. Some of the steps taken are:
  • Banning of JeM , JKLF type parties which are against the development of state 
  • Action of armed forces against militiant
  • Various developmental projects in recent days started in kashmir 

motivates to think that this issue will be solved within next few years to come as the situation has reached its CLIMAX MODE and everyone related to it are ready to take FULL AND FINAL ACTION!!!
