Kashmir was a peaceful Place to be visited for everyone before Partition of Subcontinent. Partition Resulted as Pakistan and India, Two separate nation free from the British Rule. British ruled the subcontinent for many years. Subcontinent under British rule was a combination of number of states and provinces. Kashmir was also one of those states. As the Partition was announced, every state was given the authority, whether to join Pakistan or India or remain Independent.

Some States opted Pakistan and some voted India but Very few States intended to remain Free.

King of Kashmir, Hari Singh, decided to remain Independent; neither to join India and nor Pakistan.

But Kashmiri people wanted to join Pakistan, as Kashmir was densely populated with Muslims.

Muslims presented this before the King but he refused. This resulted in to the creation of rebellions.

Rebels were so powerful that Kashmir army was unable to fight with.

Indo-Pak war

In these conditions, King wrote to Indian authorities for help. India, being Greedy accepted to help only if Kashmir would be given to Indian accession in Future. King saw no other way except Indian help, He agreed with hard  heart.

Indian army entered Kashmir and were able to suppress weaponless Public. This made Pakistanis to arouse. Muslim fighters also entered Kashmir and accessed 30 percent of Kashmir. UN mediated the issue and draw a border line for Indian hold Kashmir and Pakistan accessed Kashmir.

. Indian hold Kashmir,  Present

Muslims of Kashmir which is under indian cantrol, are protesting against indian aggressive attitude. People of Kashmir are being martyred by Indian army. Kashmiris are facing all this because they want Pakistan. Ruthless attitude of Indian Army towards Kashmir is very annoying and abusive for every human living on earth.

Azad Kashmir which is under Pakistan,  is a very peaceful region. Millions of tourists come to visit Azad Kashmir from almost every country.

. Possible danger in future and solutions

There are chances that a war may broke out between the two. Both the countries own nuclear power. So,  if a war is broke out,  nothing will remain.

So there must be some solution through negotiations. Solution is only possible with dialogue. This all is with United Nations. UN must stop indian aggression in the region to promote dialogue. Kashmir Should be free i.e neither in India nor in Pakistan or Kashmiri people should be the right to decide their future. Number of refrendoms have been carried out in Kashmir. Kashmiris always have opted for Pakistan.
