Struggle of Kashmir enters in a new phase and it needs new narrative (Radio talk)
Kashmir struggle has entered in a new phase after new #Indian move of changing status of #Kashmir by Indian establishment through a constitutional amendment. Like infamous #ChenabFormula this move is too based on permanent division of old state of J&K. Although Pakistani PM said that it was in the election program of Nerander Modi who took oath 2nd time at 30th May 2019 yet government of Imran Khan did not took any notice regarding that move in 66 days. That is why some observers said that it was pre-planned but some said it was smart move by Indians. What India did is understood yet why our foreign office have no clue of it since May 30th?
State of J&K was created by colonial rulers in 1846 when they won a battle against Lhore Darbar and had included Hazara, Jammu, Serinagar, Gilgit baltistan ( Chotta Tibet) and many more areas in it. In Mughal Times Kashmir was part of Subah Lhore. During Ranjit Singh times areas included in J&K were districts & Subdistricts of Lhore Darbar. Interesting in Ranjit times, two Sheikh brothers had ruled Kashmir till 1846 yet it was colonial rule that had made Gulab Singh of Jammu as its new ruler. Without understanding political, social and financial background of state of Kashmir during Raj 1846 till 1947, it is not possible to understand kashmir issue. the most important part of that period is 1930-31 movement against Dogra Raj. Why british government took G&B from Maharaja kashmir for 50 years of lease in late 1920s is the vital question. At the time of partition why colonial rulers included Muslim majority GurDaspur district in India is the vital question. As par 1941 census Gurdaspur had 51.2 percent Muslim population and it was only land link with Bharat. After 1947 what happened with Kashmir in India and Pakistan is also an interesting story that have many lessons in it. You can listen recording of the radio show recorded at MastFM 103 Lhore studio at August 9, 2019.
