HIT WITH TERRORISM-J&K

Jammu & Kashmir lies in the extreme north of the country and is bounded on the north by China, on the east by Tibet and on the south by Himachal Pradesh, Punjab and Pakistan. Kashmir is a multifaceted identity,the official language being Urdu and Agriculture being the main stay of the states economy.
Kashmir is considered by many as paradise for tourist both international and domestic.

Kashmir is bleeding to-day because of cross border terrorism.After independendence in august 1947,the Indo-Pak relations have been characterized by suspicion,mistrust and conflict.
Even sixty years after independence, Kashmir remains one of the most dangerous theaters of conflict, as the two nations, now armed with nuclear weapons, remain locked in confrontation.
Since independence the two countries have waged four wars against each other : in 1948,in 1965,in 1971,in 1999.
India takes great pride in its secular credentials, and believes that it is possible for people of all religions to live peacefully and with mutual respect. The presence of a Muslim-majority Kashmir in India is testimony to India’s secularism, and a refutation of the two-nation theory. But the threat is not always from across the border,it lies within kashmir too.The ongoing terrorism these days is a threat to the secularism of the nation.

Recently the issue of land transfer to the Amarnath shrine board in Jammu and Kashmir has snowballed into a full-blown controversy.
the incidents occurning in Kashmir are terrifying and heart moving.Everyday innocent people are being killed for no reason.The issue is becoming more religion oriented.The hatred between Hindus and Muslims is catching fire, and India on the whole is suffering.
There is a reign of terror in Kashmir these days.Barricades of burning tyres mark the roads.There are curfews everywhere.Militants trying to march to the line of control.People not safe in their houses.
Is this is what we call independence?
Jammu and Kashmir is not a problem of Hindu-Muslim relations as many people believe, its a problem of thoughts.
To maintain the integrity of the country such thoughts have to be left far behind and everyone should forget about Hindu and Muslims as two religions and work together and especially think together to make this planet earth a better place to live in.
