| Summary/Abstract |
The strategic scenario for India in the region is altering like never before with the One Belt One Road (OBOR) project running through Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) in form of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Without India even geographically moving an inch in the Kashmir region, the circumstances of geo-politics around it have seriously modified in the negative. These developments for a number of reasons are alarming as they are against the Indian strategic and core interests.

| Summary/Abstract |
Among a series of Confidence Building Measures that have been put in place over the past one decade to ease the tension between India and Pakistan, the twin Confidence Building Measures of LOC Travel and LOC Trade have stood the test of times and are in operation, al beit, with interruptions during periods of heightened hostility between the two neighbours. The Confidence Building Measure aimed at building trust among the border populations on either side of LOC made a modest beginning and it has forged the reunion of many of the undivided families on either side.

PoK is commonly known in Pakistan as Azad Kashmir (which lies to the west of the India’s state of Jammu and Kashmir) and Gilgit-Baltistan.

I know that most of the readers must be aware about the background of creation of Pakistan occupied Kashmir. But, yet I again want to bring out some of the facts about today’s problem in that part of India, because it gives me lot of pain when almost every day I read that how our brave Security Forces are facing the situation in Kashmir both on the borders and as well inside.

| Summary/Abstract |
The British decision to quit India brought forth an essential question on the status of the princely states and their relationship with India and Pakistan. The British Cabinet Mission in 1946 however had declared that Britain’s paramountcy over the princely states would not be transferred to the successor government(s) but would simply lapse, meaning, rights that had been surrendered by Indian princes to the paramount power “will return to the states” ( Menon 1955:47).

Kashmir Valley has been on the boil once again after the decimation of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani in mid-2016. Relationship with Pakistan has gone down subsequently with consequent escalation of violence in Kashmir. Protestors and police have been clashing in the Valley on daily basis. Pakistan has been describing Wani as a ‘martyr’ and sending off letter to various international fora inviting them to take notice of human rights violations in Kashmir.

| Summary/Abstract |
India’s reservations to the CPEC since its initiation by Beijing as an integral part of OBOR (renamed B&RI) did not come as a great surprise to the international community, overridden by New Delhi’s concerns over sovereignty with respect to the Corridor passing through PoK. The recent boycott of the Inaugural B&RI Forum by India substantiated its sustained and unwavering posture on the issue.

In international relations there are no permanent allies, there are only permanent interests .This statement of the past, holds relevance till date. No country can afford to place international concerns and commitments above its own national interests. Realpolitik means business and business requires prudence. At present, the International scenario is undergoing tremendous changes, however what remains constant is the pre eminence of national interests.

| Summary/Abstract |
As the 1994 Indian parliamentary resolution reiterated the legal position that the entire territory of the erstwhile princely state of Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and asked Pakistan to vacate the area under its illegal occupation, it is, therefore, difficult to comprehend why India has taken so long to assert its legitimate claim over PoK in an effective and forceful manner. Indeed, India’s lackadaisical attitude on this issue is responsible, to a large extent, for the present chaotic situation in the Kashmir Valley.

Repetitions of history are as relevant as the theory that each occurrence is unique by itself for linking the present with the past. Jammu and Kashmir’s history lies in between the two. Cascading out of it is the dispute over PoK accelerated by strategic, political and economic factors.

Kashmir crisis has undergone a dramatic change during the last two decades. The meaning of azadi has changed considerably taking the form of religion. The different factions in Kashmir’s separatist movement have lost their hold in the wake of aggressive jihadi groups. The intrusion of stone pelters and martyrdom of Kashmir terrorists have roused the emotion of the masses of Kashmir.

| Summary/Abstract |
India’s experiences with state sponsor terrorism, like other countries in the South Asian region, can also be broadly divided into external and internal terrorism. External largely covers state sponsor terrorism, concerns with “cross-border terrorism” perpetrated by Indian neighbouring countries especially terrorist groups based in Pakistan with connections to Al-Qaeda. More recently, the appearance of support groups based in Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Sri Lanka has resulted in the spread of terrorism from specific locale to urban centres in India.
