Sep 11, 2012 at 17:06 | comment | added | SigueSigueBen | I thought that the majority of people in Jammu and Ladakh were not considered to "Kashmiri" by ethnicity or language. If that is not the common usage, then it is my mistake! | |
Sep 11, 2012 at 16:55 | comment | added | Ankur Banerjee | On separation, there's a lot of propaganda on both sides on what the 'majority' wants. It has never been put to an actual referendum because both sides claim it as legitimately theirs, and hence a referendum is "not needed because we already know what the answer is". It also gets muddied along religious lines since there are Muslim Kashmiris on the Indian side who want it to be a part of India, some don't; then there are Hindus too native of the region called Kashmiri Pundits who were displaced and claim the land as theirs / part of India. It's a complicated mess. | |
Sep 11, 2012 at 16:51 | comment | added | Ankur Banerjee | Ah I see you're using the pedantic interpretation of 'Kashmiris' as those specifically living in Kashmir Valley. In the Indian subcontinent (both sides of the border), 'Kashmiris' alternatively - and you can say incorrectly - is supposed to mean everyone in the regions mentioned here. | |
Sep 11, 2012 at 16:15 | comment | added | SigueSigueBen | Also, Gilgit, Baltistan and the other Northern Areas are not populated by Kashmiris. | |
Sep 11, 2012 at 16:10 | comment | added | SigueSigueBen | @AnkurBanerjee I thought the Indian Kashmiris (and not everyone in Jammu & Kashmir is Kashmiri of course) almost universally want either independence or to be part of Pakistan. Is that incorrect? | |
Sep 11, 2012 at 15:14 | comment | added | Ankur Banerjee | Azad Kashmir is one of the provinces administered by Pakistan, there's Gilgit-Baltistan too. And while I am not concerned by it, I can imagine a comment war breaking out soon here about "most Kashmiris don't want to be a part of India". :) | |
