Frankly, I'd be okay with declaring the LOC to be the international border and just moving on with life already but for that to happen, Kashmir has to be well and truly incorporated into the Indian Union. The task of moving on becomes difficult when Pakistani flags are paraded in Srinagar. In that regard, I believe India's strategy with regards to Kashmir needs work, as the former CM recently noted.
Thank you for your views.
I also concede that the Indian approach to J&K ( not Kashmir alone) needs review, Article 370 must go. There is no option but to make the LC into an IB.
As regards incorporation into India , it will happen when it becomes a regular state like the rest, far too long has this special status lasted. What the former CM is a Politicians view & we know that a Politician who has lost his seat will sell his Grandmother to come back to the lime light & power.
As regards Pak flags , they are planted & can be ' un planted 'in a trice.
Both nations have allowed their parts of J&K to fall back either due to special status granted which created generations of free loaders living on the dole and / or not granting them statehood.
Sure, I would have loved it if lets say Peshawar , Gilgit or Multan were a part of India. Similarly, you possibly would have liked Ajmer or Hyderabad to be a part of Pakistan. But that didnt happen.
Now, either we lament for 7 decades & more over a girl we cherished but never got & make an *** of ourselves or we just say to ourselves - F*** it & move on.
The choice is ours.
