BBC’s George Arney travels to Kashmir to speak to young people



The View from Kashmir

Members of the Kashmiri rock band - Blood Rock

A series of protests against Indian rule in Kashmir has left more than 30 people dead since August. Thousands of people have died in the violence there since 1989.

The latest protests have been spear headed by the so-called children of conflict - those who have only ever known the troubles.

For Assignment George Arney travels to Kashmir to speak to young people to find out what they want and how they view India.

Arney also speaks to a 28-year-0ld Indian army Captian, who also speaks about letting Kashmir go to its people forever.

I dont know when the heat of separation will cool down and we all will understand not to differentiate between each other on color, accent, language and caste.
These differences are there but not big enough to burn your heart in hate and to start you on a mission to get some pseudofreedom.
Dont lead people on those paths where there is loss of life for no reason.

Can you image yourself making the same comment during British occupation of pre-1947 India. Well England did say sorry when its queen of late visited Jalianwala Bagh, yours is pending.
Regards.
