India Sovereign question by Madhukar Daftary: Can this suggested solution to Kashmir problem be acceptable?
There are two types of extremists in Kashmir, one type wanting independence and another plebisite. Neither of these can be acceptable to any sovereign country like India. Also there is POK which remains as such since independence. Also there are Hindus in Jammu and Kasmiri Pandits displaced from Kashmir.
To resolve all these problems, the suggested solution is settle boundary between India and Pakistan, more or less, at LOC with some changes here and there. Thus Kashmir gets divided between India and Pakistan with Jammu and part of Kashmir including Hindu religious places of Kashmir remaining in India. Next step is the smooth transfer of muslims to Pak side of Kashmir and Hindus to India side of Kashmir with their finance and exchange of properties and also resettlement of Kashmiri Pandits back to their homes in Kashmir.

FORTY years ago, the nation marked its last Pakistan Day as a two-winged entity. Within days the last vestiges of the country constituted less than a quarter century earlier had been drowned in a bloodbath.

constructed during the time of Rama by the vanara architect Nala Often referred to as Adam s Bridge it now amounts to only a chain of limestone shoals remaining above sea level According to colonial British reports this is a natural causeway which was formerly complete but was breached by a violent storm in 1480 The island consists mostly of flat to rolling coastal plains with mountains rising only in the south central part Amongst these is the highest point Pidurutalagala reaching 2 524 metres 8 280 ft above sea level The climate of Sri Lanka can be described as tropical and warm Its

the summer monsoon rains The rainfall pattern is influenced by monsoon winds from the Indian Ocean and Bay of Bengal as the winds encounter the mountain slopes of the Central Highlands they unload heavy rains on the slopes and the southwestern areas of the island Some of the windward slopes receive up to 2 500 millimetres 98 in of rain each month but the leeward slopes in the east and northeast receive little rain Periodic squalls occur and sometimes tropical cyclones bring overcast skies and rains to the southwest northeast and eastern parts of the island Between December to March monsoon

History Main article History of Sri Lanka Early periods Sigiriya Rock Fortress Paleolithic human settlements have been discovered at excavations in several cave sites in the Western Plains region and the South western face of the Central Hills region Anthropologists believe that some discovered burial rites and certain decorative artifacts exhibit similarities between the first inhabitants of the island and the early inhabitants of Southern India Recent bioanthropological studies have however dismissed these links and have placed the origin of the people to the northern parts of India citation needed One of the first written references to the island is found in the Indian epic Ramayana which described the emperor Ravana as monarch of the powerful kingdom of Lanka which was created by the divine sculptor Vishwakarma for Kubera the treasurer of the Gods English historian James Emerson Tennent also theorized Galle a southern city in Sri Lanka was the ancient seaport of Tarshish from which King Solomon is said to have drawn ivory peacocks and other valuables The main written accounts of the country s history are the Buddhist chronicles of Mahavansa and Dipavamsa Sri Lankan coin 1st century CE The earliest known inhabitants of the island now known as Sri Lanka were probably the ancestors of the Wanniyala Aetto people also known as Veddahs and numbering roughly 3 000 Linguistic analysis has found a correlation of the Sinhalese language with the languages of the Sindh and Gujarat although most historians believe that the Sinhala community emerged well after the assimilation of various ethnic groups From the ancient period date some remarkable archaeological sites including the ruins of Sigiriya the so called Fortress in the Sky and huge public works Among the latter are large tanks or reservoirs important for conserving water in a climate that alternates rainy seasons with dry times and elaborate aqueducts some with a slope as finely calibrated as one inch to the mile Ancient Sri Lanka was also the first in the world to have established a dedicated hospital in Mihintale in the 4th century BCE Ancient Sri Lanka was also the world s leading exporter of cinnamon which was exported to Egypt as early as 1400 BCE Sri Lanka was also the first Asian nation to have a female ruler in Queen Anula 4742 BC Ancient Sri Lanka Sanghamitta arriving in Sri Lanka with the Holy Bodhi Tree Since ancient times Sri Lanka was ruled by monarchs most notably of the Sinha royal dynasty that lasted over 2000 years The island was also infrequently invaded by South Indian kingdoms and parts of the island were ruled intermittently by the Chola dynasty the Pandya dynasty the Chera dynasty and the Pallava dynasty The island was also invaded by the kingdoms of Kalinga modern Orissa and those from the Malay Peninsula Buddhism arrived from India in the 3rd century BCE brought by Bhikkhu Mahinda who is believed to have been the son of Mauryan emperor Ashoka Mahinda s mission won over the Sinhalese monarch Devanampiyatissa of Mihintale who embraced the faith and propagated it throughout the Sinhalese population The Buddhist kingdoms of Sri Lanka would maintain a large number of Buddhist schools and monasteries and support the propagation of Buddhism into Southeast Asia Colonial era British colonial Coat of arms of Ceylon Sri Lanka had always been an important port and trading post in the ancient world and was increasingly frequented by merchant ships from the Middle East Persia Burma Thailand Malaysia Indonesia and other parts of Southeast Asia The islands were known to the first European explorers of South Asia and settled by many groups of Arab and Malay merchants A Portuguese colonial mission arrived on the island in 1505 headed by Loureno de Almeida the son of Francisco de Almeida At that point the island consisted of three kingdoms namely Kandy in the central hills Kotte at the Western coast and Yarlpanam Anglicised Jaffna in the north The Dutch arrived in the 17th century Although much of the island came under the domain of European powers the interior hilly region of the island remained independent with its capital in Kandy The British East India Company established control of the island in 1796 declaring it a crown colony in 1802 although the island would not be officially connected with British India The fall of the kingdom of Kandy in 1815 unified the island under British rule 20th Century and the World Wars European colonists established a series of tea cinnamon rubber sugar coffee and indigo plantations The British also brought a large number of indentured workers from Tamil Nadu to work in the plantation economy The city of Colombo was established as the administrative centre and the British established modern schools colleges roads and churches that brought Western style education and culture to the native people Increasing grievances over the denial of civil rights mistreatment and abuse of natives by colonial authorities gave rise to a struggle for independence in the 1930s when the Youth Leagues opposed the Ministers Memorandum which asked the colonial authority to increase the powers of the board of ministers without granting popular representation or civil freedoms Buddhist scholars and the Teetotalist Movement also played a vital role in this time During World War II the island served as an important Allied military base A large segment of the British and American fleet were deployed on the island as were tens of thousands of soldiers committed to the war against Japan in Southeast Asia Independence Main article Dominion of Ceylon The formal ceremony marking the start of self rule with the opening of the first parliament at Independence Square Following the war popular pressure for independence intensified The office of Prime Minister of Ceylon was created in advance of independence on 14 October 1947 Don Stephen Senanayake being the first prime minister On February 4 1948 the country won its independence as the Dominion of Ceylon On July 21 1960 Sirimavo Bandaranaike took office as prime minister and became the world s first female prime minister and the first female head of government in post colonial Asia In 1972 during Sirimavo Bandaranaike s second term as prime minister the country became a republic within the Commonwealth and the name was changed to Sri Lanka The island enjoyed good relations with the United Kingdom and had the British Royal Navy stationed at Trincomalee Civil war Main article Sri Lankan Civil War One of the aspects of the independence movement was that it was very much a Sinhalese movement As a result the Sinhalese majority attempted to remodel Sri Lanka as a Sinhalese nation state The lion in the national flag is derived from the banner of the last Sinhalese Kingdom which to the Sinhalese majority is a symbol of their fight against British colonialism One single strip of orange on the left part of the flag represents the Tamil population and it is seen by many Tamil as a symbol of their marginalisation In 1956 the Official Language Act commonly known as The Sinhala Only Act was enacted The law mandated Sinhala the language of Sri Lanka s majority Sinhalese community which is spoken by over 70 of Sri Lanka s population as the sole official language of Sri Lanka Supporters of the law saw it as an attempt by a community that had just gained independence to distance themselves from their colonial masters The immediate and intended consequence of this act was to force large numbers of Tamil who worked in the civil service and who could not meet this language requirement to resign An attempt to make Buddhism the national religion to the exclusion of Hindu and Islam was also made Affirmative action in favour of Sinhalese was also instituted ostensibly to reverse colonial discrimination against Sinhalese in favour of Tamil Many Tamil in response to this deliberate marginalisation came to believe that they deserved a separate nation state for themselves From 1983 to 2009 there was an on and off civil war against the government by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam LTTE a separatist militant organization who fought to create an independent state named Tamil Eelam in the North and East of the island Bot

This problem should be solved by India and pakistan Govt. But Kashmir should not be devided in Hindus and Muslims. Kashmir is the sovereign part of India and its division should not acceptable to we Indians.
linlyons @ 3:52 am
i think that, at this point, an equitable settlement of Kashmir is not the most pressing problem.
the most pressing problem is how to maintain a stable country in Pakistan.
clearly the last thing India needs is a failed state on her boarder.
i would think that one might present that as a possible solution.
however, India would do well to offer whatever assistance, either active, or passive, that would help keep the government of Pakistan in place.
considering what just happened in Mumbai, is it in anyone’s interest to let the nuclear weapons fall into the hands of folks who want to damage both countries?
if there is any rationality left, maybe it’s time to address the issue that is the most detrimental to everyone in the region.
Edit: “Kashmir is the sovereign part of India and its division should not acceptable to we Indians.”
and there are people in Pakistan who are just as passionate.
it does you no good to win the battle and lose the war.
the most pressing issue in assuring that the nuclear weapons in Pakistan do not fall into the hands of those you don’t want to have them.
while i hope for the best in the region, this should serve as a good lesson for the world that developing nuclear weapons does not make a country safer.
i think Pakistan did so in response to India.
now India must worry about the threat of Pakistan’s weapons.
had that competition not started, India would be far safer today.
