Kashmir:India

There are a many issues for which India has never ceded Kashmir even when it was in its weakest position.

1.It would be a geopolitical disaster considering the location of J & K as it is, it will turn in to a sweet heaven for fundamentalist,jihadis etc to wage war . You can see now , with the kind of money Arab is pushing in to spread Wahhabi culture in valley.
2. Security concern. It will have repelling effect on other parts of India too.
3. Hindu fundamentalist & nationalist might spew vengeance on Muslim minority in other parts of India.Everyone knows its the Muslim majority & separatist ideologies that works in Valley alone that is fueling the Azadi sentiments. Ladakh & Jammu are just scapegoats who are tormented under the Kashmir valley political hegemony.
4.Why would India cede Kashmir when it has put so much of efforts,money & time till now. It has fought 3 wars mind you.

 I think the best possible way to look forward is to look for ways to dislocate the very idea of these separatist.

1. Divide the state in to 3 parts.Jammu, ladakh & Kashmir.
2.create an atmosphere where youth can be mobilized to see beyond the valley. Ask TCS, Infosys etc to set up the best campus & train the educated youth to work for them.
3.Build all kinds of Indian institutes & provide them all free facilities. let the poor & helpless of the valley get to know India. Its only the elite there who gets a chance to come to Delhi & spew venom on Indian govt.
4.Request Army personal to interact more with the youth. This is a major problem which needs to be solved as the general public hate the Army presence. They see & feel India as a Gun holding fauji who just wants to harass him/her.
