Regarding the Kashmir issue, When British left India, they divided India into 565 princely state, eventually almost all princely states joined either India or Pakistan. Jammu and Kashmir decided to stay independent by Harri Singh(King). Pakistan looked out it as opportunity and tried to seize J&K, later Harri Singh, came to seek out help from India. Then Vallabhbhai Patel(Deputy Prime Minister) took advantage of this situation and suggested J&K to become part of India. There Harri Singh have signed making it part of India. Indian government didn't occupy the area which is occupied by Pakistan, they have stopped Pakistan. But didn't push back Pakistan. This part of area which is occupied by Pakistan is called as POK(Pakistan Occupied Kashmir) in India. Later Article 370 was introduced as temporary provision for J&K, giving them special status in Indian constitution. Article 370 goes something like this: 1. Nobody can buy any land in J&K. 2. If a women marries any Indian citizen, she was denied as citizen of J&K. 3. ... Most of the J&K citizens were unemployed because there is no investment. Terrorists have always seen this as opportunity and infiltrated into India and many Kashmirs were trained as terrorists. India lost nearly 40,000 soldiers in Kashmir. From nearly 70 years, Kashmir have been easy target for terrorists groups, because citizens have got nothing to do, and some of them turned into extremists. Indian government is used to pump in lot of money for some of J&K citizens for basic necessities with subsidies. Regarding abrogation of article 370, Jammu and ladakh people were happy, some Kashmirs were not happy, and almost all of India is happy, regarding this change. Regarding Muslims being suppressed, .... We live like brothers. With such a huge population, sometimes disputes happen, media take it to another level, showcasing it as if though this is how whole India is like. Media turns even normal disputes into religious. Despite all this we live well.
