Even before India and Pakistan won their independence from Britain in August 1947, Kashmir was hotly contested. • Under the partition plan provided by the Indian Independence Act, Kashmir was free to accede to India or Pakistan. • The maharaja (local ruler), Hari Singh, chose India and a two-year war erupted in 1947. • A new war followed in 1965, while in 1999 India fought a brief but bitter conflict with Pakistani-backed forces. • By that time, India and Pakistan had both declared themselves to be nuclear powers. • Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
