Kashmir and the Forgotten History of India’s Princely States – The Diplomat

On August 5, 2019, the Modi government of India stripped Jammu and Kashmir of its special status by abrogating Article 370 of the Indian Constitution. While To understand what is happening in Kashmir today, we need to understand the conditions in which these tensions emerged. Whatever one wants for Kashmir, or for Indian federalism, people on either side are getting the history wrong. Kashmir is a standing symbol of India’s miscarriage of democracy under both secular and Hindu nationalists. Talking about the problem of Kashmir as just a problem of federalism is poor history and poor politics. Historically, strident attacks on state rights and desire for a strong central government marked the founding of the Indian nation. The demotion of Kashmir is just one in a series of anti-state rights acts that called post-colonial India into existence. The history of the federalist advocacies of the princely states, and how they were short-changed and dragged into independent India, is comfortably forgotten across the political spectrum and in intellectual, and legal circles. If democracy was really one of the pledges that united India in cooperation with Kashmir was a princely state during British rule with a Hindu ruler and at least two-thirds Muslim population. To date, it is the only Muslim majority state in India. Legally speaking, Kashmir’s accession, in October 1947, was no different from the other 550 princely states that joined India and were subsequently erased as geographi...

Political movements in Jammu and Kashmir (princely state)

Under Background [ ] The princely state of Jammu and Kashmir was created in 1846, through the The princely state combined disparate regions which were ethnically, culturally and linguistically different to each other. In the south was the Jammu region with a population ethnically related to Punjabis Pandits, while in the east was Ladakh whose population was ethnically and culturally Tibetan and practised Buddhism.

When the unarmed protesters refused to accept the orders, the troops charged them with spears. Scores of protesters jumped off the Haji Rather Sum Bridge at Zaldgar, in the hope they would hide in the marsh underneath, but at least 28 bodies were recovered from the river, and over 100 sustained wounds. Developments in the late 19th century [ ] In 1877-1879 the Kashmir Valley witnessed a severe famine, wi...
