that's against the facts, The name India, Hindustan and even the name Hindu is all given by British. And this region included several different states, many enemies of eachother. Today's India is the largest that this country ever became even as Mughal Sultanate it din't include many of todays Indian states.

Hinduism exists in this region from thousands of years but it was not given any specific name, people were moreover recognized by the Gods they followed.

Hinduism was a name given by British to the religions of this region all but except budhism and jainism.

As a proof to my claim here is a link to a documentary where a Hindu guy mentions it all himself.

YouTube - ‪Hinduism- 2‬‎

I just shared it as a piece of knowledge so pls don't take it negative.
Sorry Sir, This piece of Info is wrong.. Hindu is derived from Sindhu/Indus and called by Persian and that is why it has been called Hindu-staan (Land of Hindus) which is persian.. as invaders from Middle east frst destroying Persia and then Afghanistaan hence they always referred us Hindustaan which includes only North India and current Pakistan... Please look for other and better history books..
 
There is a thread already with a video of the full broadcast of the PM's speech.

The J&K problem is not simple. There are 6 million people in the valley which are divided among pro-independance, pro-indian and pro-pakistani sentiments which is fluid. Then you have around 4.5 million people in Jammu and Ladakh who are mostly pro-Indian. A solution is when everyone goes for a compromise and those who don't see that are living in a fool's paradise.
 
If there are widespread protests in Indian-occupied Kashmir or in Zionist-occupied Palestine the news are never flashed every 10 minutes in world news channes as there are when there are protests in Tehran. The news media only reports what their master in Washington wants them to concentrate on.
 
As far as we control kashmir the only players involved in this game r Indian political parties(and i said Indian-now dont jump up from ur seat that i dont named Kashmir),rather than just watching Pakistan have no role to play in it

You haven't been able to gain an inch on Kashmir keeping Paksitan out, but weather you like it or not, Pakistan is a party, probably more than you think it is.
 
^^^Well Indian media had almost a 24/7 coverage of the current violence. That is why IMO even the sepratists should be reaching out to GoI and the rest of India as only that way they can resolve the issue.

Western media would be conerned or even Pakistani media will be conerned with their own interests and besides can do little to help them.
 
You haven't been able to gain an inch on Kashmir keeping Paksitan out, but weather you like it or not, Pakistan is a party, probably more than you think it is.

for the last 63 yrs we r keeping each and every inch,controlling it unanimously,by calling the area disputed Pakistan thinks they r a party in this deal,but Indian policy against which even not a single other nation ever tried to enter as a 3rd party clearly shows who is the single player in the deal

Jammu: Two women was killed and nine others, including two Army soldiers, were injured when a passenger bus was caught in cross fire after an Army convoy was ambushed by militants in Rajouri district today.

A group of militants perched on hill tops fired at the vehicle of a Commanding Officer of Rashtriya Rifles. A bus passing through the area got hit in the attack, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Rajouri, R K Jalla told PTI.

In the firing, two women died and 9 others were injured, two of them Army jawans, reports said.

Army troops returned the fire and a heavy gun battle followed which was continuing till last reports came in.

The bus passengers have been evacuated and the injured admitted to a hospital in Rajouri.
 
In before India-bashing starts:

RIP to the departed Security Personnel and civilians.

Now that the civilians have been evacuated, let hell loose and kill those MC/BC terrorists. Its unfortunate that two women died at the hands of militants, but hey, according to some here, they are martyrs!! Its ok when militants kill women and children in the name of 'freedom struggle'. Fvcking hypocrites!
 
RIP to the deceased.

These are Chakka militants who doesn't dare to fight man to man but kill women, children and innocents. No wonder they deserve dog's death they get at IA's hands.
 
LISTEN WAT THEY SAY!

GOD BLESS KASHMIRIS

Those videos are ... old. Next you're going to post videos from 1970 and claim Bangladesh is yours. :what:
 
indeed a failed strategy from the get go. It's fanning more hatred. This is no new phenomenon it's been going on for decades now. Of course they'll blame us for their woes and for current ground realities which are not in their favour! :) :)

Sir.. Wont it be better if you worry about the ground realities in Pakistan instead of smiling at the ones in India.

Our phenomenon has been going on for decades and will stay managed. Look where you have landed in 3 years..

i dont laugh at the misfortunes of occupied peoples

i do laugh when i expose hypocrisy and flaws of the arguments of people like you and your comrades :cheers:

and just because I am discussing Kashmir and the uprising doesnt mean you have to bring up political/security issues in Pakistan --which is a totally different topic and will be treated as thusly.
 
Kashmir separatists reject Singh’s autonomy offer

Wednesday, 11 Aug, 2010

“Our struggle is not for restoration of autonomy. It is to seek our right to self-determination,” Mirwaiz Umar Farooq said.

SRINAGAR: Separatist leaders in Indian-administered Kashmir dismissed Wednesday overtures from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh about political autonomy in the region following months of anti-India unrest.

Appealing to Kashmiri Muslims to “give peace a chance”, Singh had said Tuesday that his government would consider any consensus proposal for autonomy as long as it remained “within the ambit” of the constitution.

He also announced the creation of a panel of experts that would draw up a “jobs plan” for Indian-administered Kashmir where rampant unemployment — especially among young people — has fuelled resentment against Indian rule.

But senior Kashmir separatists rejected Singh's initiative.

“Our fight is for independence, not autonomy,” Javed Mir, a former militant commander turned separatist politician, told AFP.

“We will continue our fight for our goal through peaceful protests,” said Mir, who had been among the first Kashmiris to take up arms in 1989 when frustration against Indian rule boiled over into a full-blown insurgency.

Under the terms of its accession to India in 1947— after independence from Britain and the sub-continent's division — Kashmir was granted a relatively high degree of autonomy, excluding areas like defence and foreign affairs.

But those powers have been eroded over the years, and renewed promises of greater autonomy gain little traction in separatist circles.

“Our struggle is not for restoration of autonomy. It is to seek our right to self-determination,” Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, an influential moderate separatist, told AFP.

“We should be allowed to decide whether we want to remain with India, accede to Pakistan or carve out an independent state,” he said.

Kashmir is divided between India and Pakistan, which both claim the region in full and have fought two wars over their territorial dispute.

The Kashmir legislative assembly in 2000 passed a resolution favouring full restoration of the state's autonomy, but it was rejected by the then Hindu-nationalist government in New Delhi.

Autonomy is the main demand of the ruling National Conference, the state's biggest pro-India political party.

Thanks for rejecting. I was just wondering why MMS even extended this gesture (I feel its more like a token gesture to buy some time). And Mirwaiz Farooq can forget about right to self-determination in this and next life time. Its not going to happen if history is any guide.
