Where I said Jai Jammu is different from Jai Hind?
I would like to ask u one thing If for u Jai jammu and Jai hind are different.So then why do we use Last name as sharma,mahajan,jamwal etc. even if we all r hindus or in broader aspect I will say we all are Humans so then why there is Last name??????

…lets not try to avoid the facts…fooling ourselves by building illusions around us!! people love to live in illusions….

Lets bear this in our minds that….

1) india or no other nation will give away its part…so india claiming POK or pak claiming indian kashmir is nothing more than hollow claims…

2) there can never be one solution which will be accepetable by both jammu and kashmir and ladakh as well…

i have a strong feeling that the only solution possible is …..

Jammu and ladakh should be full fleged states within the indian union

Kashmir valley shouuld have fair degree of autonomy except
foreign affairs, defence and economy

LOC should become SEALED international border with proper check points and rules for legal travel across.

Asking for a separate state for jammu is not merely asking for a separate state…but its a part of the overall solution of the problem!!!! This solution is holistic.

Infact kashmir issue is only about the valley…its only the valley which is so called “disputed” ( and it was not like this always..its also our indian govts. faults which allowed the situation to come this far..its sad!!!)

…whether someone accepts these present facts or not….these will still be facts!!!

I do agree with you.Article 370 is the main problem.Why dont we start some movement against this article 370 instead of separation thing??
What you say?

Dear friend, i appreciate the sentiments here and i agree completely, this is exactly what my heart says…and i would like to add that ideally article 370 should be taken away and j&k should be kept as one state for ever period!!!…but if this article can’t be taken away then a demand for a separate jammu state and ladakh as a union territory shouldn’t be seen as a disaster…it would be much better than the ‘autonomy’ or ‘self rule’ thing !! and its a surprise that one sees a demand for a separate state as wrong and ‘antinational’ but one doesn’t dare to see what would happen if the centre and the state give “autonomy (pre 53 status)” or “self rule” to the whole state (as strongly recommended by the present state govt)…my friends that would be a real disaster!!! also its a mistake to see the demand for jammu state as communal…it just works better in terms of administration and many other things…say management!!! OR i say take away article 370 and keep jammu and kashmir as one state…(complete unification with india)

the idea of trifurcation shouldn’t be seen merely as a demand for division,but it could be an everlasting solution to this crippling national and state problem for ever J&k is a unique state with unique problem and complexity and the solution to this problem will also have to be unique some out of the box solution will be required….its not fair to compare j&k with other states…its much more complex the solution will not emerge with sentiments alone!!! we will have to take care of the burning kashmir, lost & undermined jammu and silent ladakh as well or else the things will keep on going hopelessly the way they are stalemate!!!
