The Shia in G B had no say in this and were massacred by the Pakistani Army the last time they protested against encroachment by others. Secondly, Jammu & Kashmir is not monolithic Muslim. As you well know Ladakh is majority Buddhist and Jammu is majority Hindu and there is only the Valley that is majority Muslim. The Muslims in the Valley may have delusions of independence but there is not a chance that their sliver and the sliver that is Azad Kashmir has any chance of making it on its own. They may find themselves becoming citizens of a state that has them attest to who is a real Muslim in order to get a passport. Good luck with that!

I had been hoping that the Indian Supreme Court might step in and rule this move as unconstitutional but that hope is fading.Tansen28https://www.blogger.com/profile/13150958304401283057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8135134425417686130.post-27418898466152915792019-08-08T03:36:59.601-07:002019-08-08T03:36:59.601-07:00Worth re-reading.
