| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The crown of India, the divinely beautiful and immensely strategic state of Jammu and Kashmir since its tumultuous accession to the Indian union in 1947, displayed at times, the pangs of an uneasy existence with the secular, liberal and generous environs of the parent nation. That is abiding emotional integration to Mother India, is still wanting in some spheres, even after 66 years of togetherness, is hardly a tribute to India's and the state's political leadership or governance notwithstanding the countless sacrifices made, monumental aid and resources invested for the security and development of India's restive northernmost state. That India's ever belligerent neighbor, Pakistan has left no stone unturned or any machination in the book to fan separatism in J&K which is considers its jugular vein is hardly surprising. In the globally troubled times of today, Pakistan and some others in the world forget that India is home to the third largest population in the world and thus J&K is not a mere symbol of India's secularism but its prime guarantee. |
