Who's is Kashmir rightfully
angell:
Exactly - originally, Sri Lanka, Pakistan - all were a part of India!
We are not willing to part with out personal belongings, this is a whole country we're talking about people! a WHOLE country dividing into parts? And now u say Kashmir too? Why? Do you want to increase your country's geographical area? Become stronger?
:S

In 1947 the people wanted union with Pakistan but the people were overwhelmingly muslim. there was a war and India got most of kashmir. There have been I think 2 wars since and now there is stalemate.
angell:
Times and things have changed now! The few people I know want India!
Personally, I feel it is KASHMIR which should decide.
Ethically, however, we Indians have a right!

I dont know what the ethnic balance is at the moment but I think it is still majority muslim, therefore the people will probably vote for union for pakistan. This is probably the best. It will be VERY messy though, and I think this will never happen.
If I were Kashmiri I would not stay there. The most power you can have is the power of opinion. Make your money elsewhere and remember your cause.
I am always on the side of the rebels

Did u know that the victims of ethnic cleansing in Kashmir were Hindus? Ok, it is a muslim majority state, but that does not automatically mean that it should be a part of Pakistan. India has the third largest population of Muslims in the world.
