Timeline of the Kashmir conflict
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a timeline of the Kashmir conflict.
•Pakistanis consider Kashmir as a land, which represents their deep desire to try to match up to India and consider it as their favorite weekly hobby. The Indians on the other hand expect the Pakistanis to behave in a rational manner and respect the will of the Kashmiri people. Because of the Kashmir region, there have been many wars where thousands of people from both sides of the demarcated areas lost their lives.
