The mainland of India extends between latitudes 8*4'(Kanyakumari)and36*6'N(Kashmir).The latitudinal extend influences the duration of day and night as one moves from south to North.Hence the difference between the duration of day and night hardly felt in Kanyakumari but not so in Kashmir.

I totally empathise your ignorance. It is evident that you are Pakistani living in that cave that u call a country and hence is quite unaware of the real facts as a matter of fact any facts except the "facts" that the bearded jehadi mollas cook up and throw to you which u and ur poor compatriots readily gobble up.Jammu and Kashmir is an Indian state, parts of which is currently under illegal occupation of Pakistan and China. So you see it is not a question of India freeing kashmir but Pakistan and china ceasing their illegal occupation of territory that legitimately is Indian. God Bless

What is the Kashmir crisis?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Kashmir dispute dates back to 1947 when India was partitioned along religious lines, leading to the formation of India and Pakistan. After this, there were over 650 states, run by princes, existing within the two newly independent countries. These princely states had the option of deciding which country to join or remaining independent. Because of its location, Kashmir could choose to join either India or Pakistan. Maharaja Hari Singh, the ruler was unable to decide which nation Kashmir should join. He chose to remain neutral, but fighting over Kashmir kept breaking out and given the apparently irreconcilable territorial claims in Kashmir, there is no immediate end in sight to this conflict.

The sloped roofs help keep the houses cooler by not coming in contact with direct midday sun. They also have the additional benefit of being able to more easily shed water.

Kanyakumari is just 8 degrees away from the equator. As equator receives the direct Sun rays, there won't be hardly any difference between the day & night. Where as, Kashmir is 37 degrees away from the equator. So there can be about 5 hrs difference between day & night

What are the famous food of jamumu and kashmir?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First of all, there is a clear demarcation between the food of the three main regions of Jammu and Kashmir state. The difference in eating habits is influenced by the two main factors of local climate and dominant religion/culture.

But, to demarcate it in a easy to understand Vegetarianan and Non Vegetarian way,

1.) Vegetarian Dishes : Although you will not find many vegetarian dishes here, but few that are there are exquisitely delicious. The most famous veg dish of all is Dum Aloo (steam cooked potato curry) and Chaman (cheese) that have made a mark not only in J&K but in entire country. Few years back, a pure vegetarian had to struggle a lot to find a suitable place where he can get vegetarian food. But now, keeping its tradition of warm hospitality, the state has opened up many restaurants that cater to their vegetarian guests and take good care of them.

After such a sumptuous meal, one really does not have any space left in stomach, but try making a bit as the special sweet dish is still remaining. Fireen is the name of that special dish that will keep your taste buds happy till the time you remember this dish. You can also enjoy the local snacks like Sheermal and baqerkhani, tsot and tsochvoru are different form of Kashmiri breads. All this only adds to the already vast range of delicacies in the Jammu and Kashmir cuisine.

2.) Non Vegetarian Dishes : In J&K, the one thing that everyone has almost every second day is non-vegetarian food. The grand feast, the 36-course meal that is called Wazwan, has around 30 non-veg dishes. The people who cook these gigantic feasts are called 'Wazas', the descendants of great chefs who were the masters of the unique art of cooking. The experimentation with the food that they do, is simply astounding. Almost every dish has a variant that is as good as the original, if not better. The main item that is served is rista (meatballs). They are made by finely smashing mutton and cooking it in gravy.

In fried variety, you will find seekh kababs, tabak maz which are fried till the time they get a very crunchy and crispy texture. Other famous and mouth watering non veg dishes that are served in the Wazwan are Roganjosh, Yakhni and Gushtaba. The cuisine in the Ladakh area has a strong resemblance to the cuisine in Tibet and the cooking style is also very similar. The Ladakhis prefer to eat rice, wheat, millet, yak butter, and other dairy products along with vegetables and fruits.

To Conclude, Cuisine of Jammu and Kashmir is nothing less than a treasure for the food lovers. The cuisine here is absolutely different from the cuisine of north India. In fact, every region has its own specialty. Unlike in other parts of India, the meals here are highly dominated by non- vegetarian dishes and the staple food here is rice. The variety during festivals is simply unimaginable and this variety brings a new edge to your travel in J&K during festivals. One thing you will never remember about your meal are the number of dishes you had as you will be served with endless amount of courses. The use of spices in every dish is also highly intriguing.

Why do you celebrate kashmir day on 5 feburary?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Rana Latif

LAHORE-Kashmir Solidarity Day will be observed on February 5 (today) in Pakistan and Azad Kashmir with great national fervour.

It will be a public holiday and all govt, semi-govt offices, educational institutions, commercial centres and markets will remain closed.

The day is observed to express solidarity with Kashmiri brethren in their just struggle to resolve the Kashmir dispute according to UN resolutions.

The dispute is unresolved since the past 60 years after the Indian refusal to allow plebiscite in Kashmir in order to facilitate Kashmiris to decide their fate according to the UN resolutions which were adopted to resolve conflict between India and Pakistan on Kashmir issue.

The successive Indian govts not only refused to hold plebiscite but continued rhetoric of Kashmir as 'atootang' of India.

During Pervez Musharraf's regime, a fresh attempt was made to resolve Kashmir dispute by dialogue but Indian stubborn attitude hampered the dialogue between Pervez Musharraf and Indian former Prime Minister Vajpayee.

However, later both the countries agreed to resume the composite dialogue including Kashmir dispute alongwith other issues of trade and cultural exchange. Both the countries also resolved to make confidence building measures before the meaningful talks.

However, nothing tangible came out of these dialogues despite unilateral CBMs by Pakistan and now the composite dialogue are also not progressing as anticipated.

The political, social organisations and Kashmiri organisations will stage protest demos, seminars and symposium on the day. One minute silence would also be observed to pay tributes to Kashmiri martyres.

A chain of human hands will be made by Pakistani and Kashmiri people from Rawalpindi/Islamabad to Muzaffarabad in Azad Kashmir as a sign of unity and solidarity. Pakistani and Kashmiri delegations will present memorandum to UN office in Islamabad demanding plebiscite in Kashmir according to the UN resolutions.

In Lahore, a number of seminars and symposium will be held on the day. Nazria Pakistan Foundation, Kashmir Action Committee, Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front, Kashmir Centre and other Kashmiri organisations will stage protest demos.

President, PM for just solution of Kashmir

Our staff reporter adds: President Pervez Musharraf has said that Pakistan would continue to extend its moral, political and diplomatic support for a just and peaceful settlement of the Kashmir dispute, in accordance with the wishes of Kashmiri people.

"We remain engaged in a sincere, sustained and purposeful dialogue with India on Kashmir. We believe that with sincerity, courage and flexibility, we can achieve a solution to the long-standing Kashmir dispute," the President said in his message on Kashmir Solidarity Day.

He said that Pakistan always stressed the need to end violence and human rights abuses in Indian occupied Kashmir. He said that Pakistan firmly believed that an enabling environment is necessary for the success of peace process.

"Today, we observe the Kashmir Solidarity Day; we salute the families of over ninety thousand Kashmiris who have sacrificed their lives in the valiant struggle to attain their inalienable right to freedom. Pakistan extends its full support for the inherent rights of the Kashmiri people to determine their own destiny," the President said.

Prime Minister Muhammadmian Soomro said,"The Government of Pakistan remains steadfast in extending its full support to the Kashmiris in their struggle of freedom."

"We observe Kashmir Solidarity Day every year to mark our unwavering political, moral and diplomatic support to the valiant struggle of our Kashmiri brothers and sisters to achieve their legitimate right to self-determination," the Prime Minister said in his message on Kashmir Solidarity Day.

The Prime minister said that on behalf of the Government and the people, he would like to say that Kashmir Solidarity Day would be observed across the country and Azad Kashmir today (Tuesday) with a pledge to express solidarity with the oppressed Kashmiri people in their struggle for right to self-determination.

The Nation

I don't know if to say "Happy Kashmir Day" because the situation in occupied Kashmir is not such that we should be celebrating. For 60 years the people of Indian occupied Kashmir have only faced Martial Law. India claim to be the world largest democracy but in Kashmir the people have no right to choose. India's first Prime Minister said that India would hold an election in Kashmir to determine which nation the people of Kashmir wanted to join, but 60 years later nothing. Judging by India's recent brutalities we shouldn't expect elections in Kashmir in the near future. India has used force to keep its federation. They used force in Jundagh, Hyderabad, Goa, Kashmir and many other places. At peace talks India seems ready to talk about everything except for Kashmir. 60 years on its about time that India fulfill the promise that it made to the people of Kashmir 60 years ago. Let them decide, let them have a voice in your democracy, let them vote.

Why does Pakistan think they have the right to Kashmir over India?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Legally, Jammu & Kashmir is an integral and inseparable part of India. The British had ruled India as one undivided country made up of many provinces and princely states. When they left, India was partitioned into two separate countries. The new country, as mentioned earlier, was called Pakistan. The British as well as the leaders of both India and Pakistan had agreed to one basic principle - every inch of land must go either to India or to Pakistan. In other words, people living in India before the partition of 1947, had only two options: they could either join Pakistan or they could join India. They could not remain independent.
Jammu & Kashmir was actually an exception. The Maharaja of the State had wanted time to decide whether he should join Pakistan or join India. But the rulers of Pakistan did not want to give him the opportunity to decide and instead attacked his state, killing hundreds of people and causing extensive damage to property. The Pakistani action forced the Maharaja to join India. But still pakistan try to take over kashmir which is illegal.
