If there was no state sponsored terrorism from Pakistan there would have been no killings or Indian Army in the first place. People often forget the root cause that started the chaos in the first place.
Regret to disagree with this assertion. Since I am old and memory still good, I remember things that others forget or deliberately ignore.
It was Sheikh Abdulla who being the Chief Minister of the State, originally advised the Raja to accede to India. Kashmiris were however granted a Special Status under Article 370 of the Constitution of India:

Reason for this provision being ‘Temporary’ was that India had accepted the 1948 UN Resolution whereby final status of the State of Jammu & Kashmir was to be decided only after the plebiscite.
Because Sheikh Abdullah was staunchly against any change to the Special Status; In August 1953 he was at the behest of Nehru, removed by Sadri- Riysat, Dr Karan Sigh ( son of the Raja) with the excuse that he no longer had the confidence of the assembly but he was denied the opportunity to re-prove that majority of the Kashmiri Assembly was behind him. Sheikh Adbulla was subsequently arrested and put into prison. His deputy Mirza Afzal Beg then formed the Plebiscite Front which also demnded immediate release of Sheikh Abdulla who was released for a short while but rearrested and remained in jail for 11 years. Kashmir Conspiracy case was eventually withdrawn.
This Special Status was arbitrarily abolished by Pundit Nehru thru an amendment:
Quote
Preamble and Article 3 of the Constitution of Jammu and Kashmir states that the State of Jammu and Kashmir is and shall be an integral part of the Union of India. Article 5 states that the executive and legislative power of the State extend to all matters except those with respect to which Parliament has power to make laws for the State under the provisions of the Constitution of India. The constitution was adopted on 17 November 1956 and came into force on 26 January 1957.

There is no point in repeating what has been already said millions of times that India has occupied Kashmir against the wishes of the Kashmiri people and despite the 1948 UN Resolution. My point is simply that Kashmiri movement against Indian occupation is largely home grown. In fact in my considered opinion, infiltration of the jihadists in the garb of the freedom fighters has done irreparable harm to the Kashmir cause and helped India to portray genuine indigenous struggle as Pakistan's state sponsored terrorism.
However I being a Pakistani, I admit my Indian friends may consider my view biased. Nevertheless the above is what I truly believe.
