Kashmir Today & Tomorrow

Background of the Kashmir issue.

It has been proven in history that in the partition of India in 1947, there were some independent states in these states, Kashmir was an important state where Muslims lived in the majority, while there were some states where the majority were Hindus but the rulers were Muslims. Like Hyderabad Deccan State and other such states to understand the background of the issue of Kashmir, this video is made with historical photos.

Raja Hari Singh was the ruler of Kashmir and he and his prime minister did not want Kashmir to join India. The majority of Muslims in Kashmir were either in favor of joining Pakistan or they wanted to remain independent and the Hindu rulers also followed the wishes of the people. Keeping in view, he had made such a policy which seemed that the image of Kashmir as a Hindu state would not be presented to the world but a thousand independent Kashmir would exist on the map of the world.

While at that time the big leader of Congress, Joharlal Nehru, who belonged to Kashmir, his ancestors were also related to Kashmir and he had an emotional attachment to Kashmir, he wanted Kashmir to be a part of India and Kashmir to India. To achieve this goal of annexation, George Lal Nehru went to Kashmir and was arrested by the Kashmir police on the orders of the Raja. He remained in the custody of the state police for two days. Met the Kashmiri leader Sheikh Abdullah who was the founding leader of the Muslim Conference. Jawaharlal Nehru failed in his goal so he went back and wrote a letter to Raja Hari Singh asking him to dismiss his Prime Minister and his style of governance.

But Hari Singh did not agree with him, so he consulted the then Viceroy of India, Mountbatten, and he wept in front of him and expressed his emotional commitment to Kashmir. But he was not ready to understand and was very emotional and wept. In all this Mountbatten advised him to send Gandhi there. As might be expected, this was understood and Gandhi was sent there, where he stayed until August 4, 1947, meeting the Raja and the Raja's family, during which time he also met the Muslim leaders of Kashmir. and also met Sheikh Abdullah, the leader of the Muslim Conference, the largest political party in Kashmir.

The results after this meeting were dire. Raja Hari Singh dismissed his Prime Minister and appointed General Jang Singh as Prime Minister. Revolts arose in the state and some were particularly affected and the traces of the early rebellion. General Janak Singh tried to suppress the rebellion and asked for help from India, but India made the help conditional on accession.

Finally, the Raja acceded to India in October 1947 and India entered its army into Kashmir. The Indian army started persecuting Kashmiri Muslims and started burning their property. This act has further inflamed the feelings of Muslims, the results of which we are seeing today and a war started which is still going on. India has occupied Kashmir by force and India has 62% of the area.

India later violated the conditions on which Raja Hari Singh acceded to India, and those conditions are those which give Kashmir a free and independent status, besides, till October 1947, Kashmir was an independent state on the map of the world. The background of human rights violations in Kashmir was briefly presented
