The conflict in Kashmir, explained

The latest crisis between India and Pakistan over Kashmir comes as India’s Hindu nationalist government has revoked Article 370 of India’s Constitution, which had for decades afforded the Muslim-majority state of Jammu and Kashmir — India’s side of Kashmir — substantial autonomy over its own affairs.

How many border problems u want to create? British: yes

I'm binge watching so many videos related to border disputes and wars. And the root of every problem ? Yes. that's Britain.

Something you missed was the Kashmiri Hindu Genocide. After ‘87, the group of radicals started targeting Kashmiri Hindus. There were a lot of Hindus that lived in Kashmir. They had to run for their lives. A lot of them settled in Jammu. The stories/accounts of these events are horrific. Hence, this worsened the situation for rest of the Muslims. The hope for Peace was lost as Indian state retaliated similarly with giving more powers to military in that area. Also the Indian Kashmiri Politicians played popularism and promoted Radical Ideology while their family lived on Indian Govt’s money and their children settled in abroad.

I like how basically every century old conflict generally boils down to how the british left its colonies in utter chaos

Talking about Kashmires without even mentioning kashmiri pandits and their exodus of 1990?

I really love all of Vox videos but they have missed out on some important points here. 1. No mention of Kashmiri Pandits/Hindus. 2. No opinions of people from other areas of Jammu and Ladakh which were also part of the "Hindu Monarch's" territory. 3. No opinions of people from Pakistan occupied Kashmir and Chinese part of Kashmir (Aksai Chin). 4. No mention of Racism in Kashmir against Indians and its role in secessionist movement. This would only have been a well rounded piece if all these things were also included. This video only seems a little lazy. I hope I provided some constructive criticism and have been of some help.

I like how they completely ignored the Kashmiri Pandit genocide 😄

It’s funny to watch western media coverage on Kashmir

This will keep happening until someone discovers OIL in Kashmir

"When you snatch pens from youth, you are forcing them to pick up guns." Those words have a lot of truth and impact behind them.

I am from jammu and Kashmir and i know plenty of people who support Pakistan and India. If we ask them why you want to join with Pakistan the only answer I get is that we are muslim and those who support Indian the only valid answer from their side is that we are born in India thats why we are Indian... Poeple of kashmir want to join Pakistan because they see themselves as Muslims not Indians that's the real reason ...i know 16-17 years old boy throwing stones... Do you think 17 year old boy can differentiate between right and wrong... Poeple manipulate them in name of religion..

in India they can take interview form this side of kashmir but what about the other side?

If there is a problem and war, there are British before.

British logic: cutting down trees to write books about saving trees

You left out the kashmiri pandit exodus where there they were forced out of their own homes for not agreeing to convert to Islam.

Britain didn't want partition. Jinnah was the one that insisted on it

The video is missing the geopolitical value: Water. The area is where the rivers Jhelum and Chenab (that feed the Indus) start. Whoever controls the area, controls the flow of water. edit: one of my best comments

Vox forgot to mension the fact that:- All this would never have happened if the British never divided the country on religious basis.

Im watching this as I conclude my 30 yr long awaited visit to Kashmir. Its beautiful, its people are noble, the conflict pains me. I truly pray it heals all wounds and a resolution is reached.
