Talk:Instrument of Accession (Jammu and Kashmir)

Removing subsection Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly election, 2014

edit

I am removing subsection titled "Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly election, 2014". This looks more like a piece of propaganda and is not needed in this Article. This article is about Instrument of Accession of Jammu and Kashmir not about elections. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ubaierbhat (talkcontribs) 21:05, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi, we normally don't put whole documents here. It's probably better to describe the document and its significance, with a link to an online version of the document itself. Danny

Yes, please read Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not number 13. You can place source text at our sister project Project Sourceburg. --mav

Okay, it's now changed to a stub. --Nate 03:32 Nov 30, 2002 (UTC)

December 2006: Latest comments of Pakistan over Kashmir “The Kashmir puzzle”

edit

"The Kashmir puzzle"

THE HINDU

Online edition of India's National Newspaper

Thursday, Dec 14, 2006

Opinion - Letters to the Editor


This refers to the editorial "Clues to Kashmir peace puzzle" (Dec. 13). Pakistan Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam's statement that her country has never claimed Kashmir as an integral part of its territory is a pleasant surprise. She has buttressed her assertion, saying Pakistan-held Kashmir has its own president and prime minister. It is clear that there is a paradigm shift in Pakistan's stand on Kashmir. If it indeed has no territorial design in Kashmir, it should leave the issue to the Kashmiris and stop fighting on their behalf. K.V. Seetharamaiah, Hassan


Ms. Aslam's remarks vindicate New Delhi's stand that Kashmir is an integral part of India. One feels that the latest statements by President Pervez Musharraf and his Government are effective catalysts for a change. K.S. Thampi, Chennai


By stating openly that it has never claimed Kashmir as its integral part, Pakistan has only reiterated the legal position. The Indian Independence Act 1947 gave the princely states the right to choose between India and Pakistan. Jammu and Kashmir became an irrevocable part of India once Hari Singh signed the Instrument of Accession to India. It is an open secret that Pakistan's relations with India have been closely linked to its fixation on Kashmir. When all is said and done, Pakistan's latest statement is welcome, as it is likely to take the neighbours closer to solving the peace puzzle. A. Paramesham, New Delhi


A week ago, Gen. Musharraf said Pakistan was willing to give up its claim to Kashmir if India accepted his "four-point solution." Why should he offer to give up the claim over something his country never claimed in the first place, using a non-existent thing to negotiate? "Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practise to deceive!" (Sir Walter Scott, Marmion) S.P. Sundaram, Chennai

http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2006/12/05/pakistan-kashmir.html?ref=rss


Now that Gen. Musharraf has clarified Pakistan's stand on Kashmir, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh should seize the opportunity to settle the issue once and for all. The BJP should not be a stumbling block to the negotiations. M.N. Srinivasan, Vellore


Statements emanating from Pakistan are intended to pressure India in two ways. While they will invoke the wrath of those who favour self-rule for Kashmir, India will be forced to negotiate the Kashmir issue more seriously on bilateral and multilateral forums. The Government should respond with a strong message. Rajeev Ranjan Dwivedi, Dhenkanal, Orissa


Pakistan's latest statement is superficial and bears no significance. It should not be seen as a shift in its Kashmir policy. It is an attempt to mislead the world until the tide turns in Gen. Musharraf's favour. With India set to sign a nuclear deal with the U.S., Pakistan wants to gain some ground and win credibility in American circles. Had Gen. Musharraf really believed that the people of Kashmir should decide their fate, he would have ended cross-border terror by now. Shashikant Singh, Roorkee

Fair use rationale for Image:Kashmir treaty.jpg

edit
 

Image:Kashmir treaty.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Referendum referred to by Lord Mountbatten

edit

There should be a link to this referendum if it was effected, and if it wasn't there should be a discussion about the implications of this, or if such discussion exists in another article, a link to it. __meco (talk) 10:25, 8 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

edit

The image Image:Kashmir-Accession-Document-a.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
  • That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The following images also have this problem:

Isn't this image/document in public domain, since it was published in 1947 and Indian copyright lasts 60 years? --Ragib (talk) 06:23, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Rajiv.dhy, please avoid adding cherry-picked opinions from newspapers. Note that WP:NEWSORG are only reliable sources for news, i.e., current affairs that the journalists have first hand information on. For opinions we need WP:SCHOLARSHIP. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 18:26, 2 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Why was the background removed

edit

Kautilya3 you removed the background information. It was full on references. If you have any objections please clearly state your objection with each sentence, so that it could be rectified. Johnleeds1 (talk) 18:48, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

You have initiated a discussion for similar content at Talk:Kashmir conflict#Making it flow correctly, which you are yet to conclude.
Secondly, in a Background section, you can only include such material as is immediately relevant to the topic. It is a good idea to establish such relevance by appealing to a good reliable source. You cannot make up your own "background" of the topic based on WP:OR.
Your content still contains a vast amount of WP:CITEKILL. On closer inspection, we find that the cited sources hardly support the content you write. Please focus on one or two high-quality and high-level sources and make sure you state what they state without any OR. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 01:45, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
