your opinion on kashmir and Kashmiri people?
Answers
Answer:
Kashmir is a part of india.Its inhabitants are known as Kashmiri people. Originally inhabited by Kashmiri pandits but they were driven out of their homes or killed by Islamic radicalists.Once a peaceful and beautiful place,kashmir is now a dangerous place to live in due to separatists and terrorists. I hope that peace returns. But I don't think its possible as some of the muslim kashmiris don't want to be a part of india. Yet most of them have jobs in india. In my opinion kashmir is a nice place but it's pretty overrated probably because some random guy called it heaven a few hundred years ago.

OPINION /INDIA
Kashmir's struggle did not start in 1947 and will not end today
India's decision to revoke Article 370 is just another chapter in Kashmir's long history of imperial oppression.

On August 5, India's Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government issued a surprise executive decree stripping away the autonomy that the state of Jammu and Kashmir was granted in exchange for joining the Indian union after independence in 1947.
Since the decree, Indian authorities also imposed an unprecedented lockdown in the region, cutting off all communication lines, restricting movement and putting prominent Kashmiri politicians under house arrest.
The government's decision to revoke Article 370 of India's constitution, which ensured the Muslim-majority state its own constitution and independence over all matters except foreign affairs, defence and communications, was undoubtedly the most far-reaching political move on the disputed region in the last seven decades. However, neither the Indian government's decision to impose direct rule from New Delhi, nor its attempts to silence the Kashmiri cries for freedom and dignity is anything new.
A brief look back in history makes it evident that Kashmir's oppression and colonial exploitation started long before the formation of modern India. Ever since its annexation by the Mughal empire in 1589 AD, Kashmir has never been ruled by Kashmiris themselves.
