marked an era of literature and learning. Kashmir as his
base he led his armies deep into South India, Turkistan

11. JAMMU AND KASHMIR – HISTORICAL FACTS
A few years back, an opinion poll conducted under the patronage of Lord
Avebury, a known British protagonist of Pakistan, found that only 6%
Kashmiris wanted to join Pakistan, 61% wanted to remain in India and 33%
were undecided! More recently, in May 2010, King's College of London
University, at the instance of the son of Col. Gaddafi of Libya, carried out
another similar survey in Kashmir. This survey found that only 2% of the
people of Kashmir wanted to join Pakistan.
In 1986 - In one of the most shameful acts of religious massacre, several
ancient historical Hindu temples are destroyed and scores of Hindus were
killed in the city of Anantnag. Chief Minister G. M. Shah looses power to his
brother-in-law Farooq Abdullah.
During 1990 – 2007: In a spate of terrorist violence, 35000 minority kashmiri
Hindus have been killed by Islamic fundamentalists and 700,000 Kashmiri
Hindus have been driven out of their homes. Pakistan’s involvement in this
carnage of violence is beyond doubt.
In Jan 26, 2011 – Constitutional right to hoist Indian Flag in Lalchowk was
denied by the elected government of Jammu and Kashmir, thereby
supporting the cause of separatists.
