      Kashmir

      Follow Following
      -  Followers

      Kashmir is a region located in the northernmost part of the Indian subcontinent, encompassing areas administered by India, Pakistan, and China. Known for its breathtaking landscapes, Kashmir has been referred to as "Paradise on Earth" due to its snow-capped mountains, lush valleys, and pristine lakes like Dal Lake and Wular Lake. It is home to diverse flora and fauna, with areas like Gulmarg, Sonamarg, and Leh-Ladakh attracting tourists, adventurers, and spiritual seekers alike. The region’s cultural richness is evident in its traditional handicrafts, Kashmiri shawls, Sufi music, and local cuisine, such as Wazwan.

      Historically, Kashmir has been a center of Hindu, Buddhist, and later Islamic culture. The Mughals admired its beauty and made it their summer retreat, leaving a lasting legacy through gardens like Shalimar Bagh and Nishat Bagh. The region has also been a focal point of strategic and cultural importance, playing a significant role in India’s historical narrative.

      The dispute over Kashmir has been a major source of tension between India and Pakistan since their independence in 1947. The conflict led to wars in 1947-48, 1965, and 1999 (Kargil War), alongside ongoing insurgency and militant activities within the region. The abrogation of Article 370 in 2019 by the Indian government changed the status of Jammu and Kashmir, dividing it into two separate Union Territories: Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh. This move was met with protests in the region, concerns over human rights, and varied international reactions.

      In terms of security, Kashmir remains heavily militarized, with frequent curfews, surveillance, and restrictions on communication, especially in times of unrest. The region’s complex socio-political situation is often manipulated by misinformation, with false claims about religious tensions, attacks on minorities, and alleged government actions surfacing regularly.
