Kashmir Issue and Pakistan

Q. Explain why do Pakistan claim Kashmir as the part of Pakistan?

     Kashmir is the valley where 87% Muslim Population is living. At the time of establishment of Pakistan Kashmiries wanted to be the part of Pakistan. British left Kashmir undecided and the Raja who was a Sikh person named Raja Hari Singh signed agreement with Indian government to take Rs. 75 lac. When Kashmiries came to know about this they fought a war against their Raja and Indian government liberating some part of Kashmir which is known as Azad Jammu and Kashmir ( AJK). Rest of the Kashmiries still working for their freedom movement against oppressive Indian government.

 Pakistan government kept up pressure on India in United Nations to liberate Kashmiries giving them the right to decide about their fate. Pakistan is constantly demanding a UN supervised plebiscite in Kashmir but India is not ready for this. All three wars between two countries are fought due this unsettled Kashmir, in 1987 elections were held in Kashmir but those were rigged by the Indian government and Kashmiries refused to accept those results. In 1999 Kargil issue was also an effort to liberate Kashmir which brought both the countries at the verge of nuclear war.
