How the English created a dispute in the northern border of Kashmir where there had been none since time immemorial

The Government of Kashmir had during the time before the accession of the princely state to the rest of India asserted and reiterated that the northern border of Kashmir extended to the Kuen Lun range and beyond. The Govt. of Kashmir had built a fort at Shahidulla which was virtually on the southern flanks of the Kuen Lun range to command the Kuen Lun border area. The Map of Kashmir pertaining to the survey of W.H. Johnson, depicted the northern border of Kashmir upto Kathai Tam in the Kilian valley. According to Ney Elias who was British Joint Commissioner in Leh from the end of the 1870s to 1885, “officials of the Kashmir Durbar occupied Shahidulla for 20 years after the capture of Ladakh in 1842”. He did not cite specific evidence, but there was positive information that in 1864, the Wazir of Ladakh, Mehta Mangal had a fort built there. A Ladakhi named Ahmad assisted by 34 others build the fort. There is substantial contemporary evidence that the Wazir of Ladakh stationed officials in the Shahidulla outpost after it was built in 1864. The writer retained by the Government of India at Leh kept the Kashmir resident regularly informed about the happenings in the border area. On 24, July 1866 he reported that there were ten soldiers of the Maharaja stationed at Shahidulla area (Shahidulla area virtually on the southern flanks of the Kuen Lun range extended inter alia upto the Kilian pass and Khathaitham in Kashmir) “on the Border of Khotan and Ladakh”. What is more, the Hajis and the merchants from Yarkand complain loudly against the exactions levied from them by the Maharaja’s men stationed at the posts of Shahidulla. The Chinese completed the reconquest of eastern Turkistan in 1878. Before they lost it in 1863, their practical authority, as Ney Elias and Younghusband consistently maintained, had never extended south of their outposts at Sanju and Kilian along the northern foothills of the Kuenlun range. Nor did they establish a known presence to the south of the line of outposts in the twelve years immediately following their return. Ney Elias who had been Joint Commissioner in Ladakh for several years noted on 21 September 1889 that he had met the Chinese in 1879 and 1880 when he visited Kashgar. “they told me that they considered their line of ‘chatze’, or posts, as their frontier – viz. , Kugiar, Kilian, Sanju, Kiria, etc.- and that they had no concern with what lay beyond the mountains” i.e. the Kuen Lun range in northern Kashmir.Similarly, the findings of the survey of W.H. Johnson , who was the Civil Assistant of the Trigonometrical Survey of India, in July 1865, established certain important pertinant points”. "Brinjga was in his view the boundary post" (near the Karanghu Tagh Peak north of Khushlashlangar, in the Kuen Lun in Ladakh ), thus implying "that the boundary lay along the Kuen Lun Range". Johnson’s findings demonstrated that the whole of the Kara Kash valley was “within the territory of the Maharaja of Kashmir” and an integral part of the territory of Kashmir. "He noted where the Chinese boundary post was accepted. At Yangi Langar, three marches from Khotan, he noticed that there were a few fruit trees at this place which originally was a post or guard house of the Chinese". To quote from “Himalayan Battleground” by Margaret W. Fisher, Leo E. Rose and Robert A. Huttenback, page 116 “The Khan wrote Johnson ‘that he had dispatched his Wazier, Saifulla Khoja to meet me at Bringja, the first encampment beyond the Ladakh boundary for the purpose of escorting me thence to Ilichi’… thus the Khotan ruler accepted the Kunlun range as the southern boundary of his dominion.” According to Johnson, “the last portion of the route to Shadulla (Shahidulla in Kashmir) is particularly pleasant, being the whole of the Karakash valley which is wide and even, and shut in either side by rugged mountains. On this route I noticed numerous extensive plateaux near the river, covered with wood and long grass. These being within the territory of the Maharaja of Kashmir, could easily be brought under cultivation by Ladakhees and others, if they could be induced and encouraged to do so by the Kashmeer Government. The establishment of villages and habitations on this river would be important in many points of view, but chiefly in keeping the route open from the attacks of the Khergiz robbers.” The findings of the survey of W.H. Johnson hold good to this day and nothing at all has changed legally. The map pertaining to the findings of the survey of W.H. Johnson who was the Civil Assistant of the Trigonometrical Survey of India,
in July 1865 unequivocally depicts the northern border of Kashmir with Khotan in the area of the historic Hindutash pass in north eastern Kashmir, more-or-less on the crests of the Kuen Lun range not withstanding the fact that the map does not reflect the true findings pertaining to the survey of W.H. Johnson and does not depict Khushlash Langar as part od Aksai Chin. Colonel Walker who was the Surveyor General in 1867 “insisted that the map as published was far different from Johnson’s Original”.

It conveniently suited the English to arbitrarily treat the area in the Highlands of Kashmir between the Kuen Lun range and the Karakoram range as “no-man’s land”. Since India, unlike The America or Australia (where the English went out of their way in protecting the interests of their possessions) could not be colonized by Anglo-Saxons after exterminating the nationals, the English were least concerned or emotionally motivated about securing Kashmir’s historic and natural frontiers on the Kuen Lun and beyond. So as long as the Russians, who were out competing with the Chinese to grab as much of eastern part of Turkistan, an alien and foreign territory over which neither the Chinese nor Russians had an iota of claim, as possible, were not a threat to their rule in the rest of India, they did not care a damn if the Chinese encroached into the cis-Kuen Lun part of Kashmir.


So, when the Government of Kashmir in 1885, at a time when the Chinese were least concerned or bothered of the alien trans- Kuen Lun areas in the highlands of Kashmir , beyond their eastern Turkistan dominion “and had literally washed their hands of it”, prepared to unify Kashmir and the Wazir of Ladakh , Pandit Radha Kishen initiated steps to restore the old out post of Shahidulla, Ney Elias who was British Joint Commissioner in Ladakh and spying on the Government of Kashmir raised objections. “This very energetic officer’ , he wrote to the resident, who duely forwarded the letter to the Government of India, “wants the Maharaja to reoccupy Shahidulla in the Karakash valley ….I see indications of his preparing to carry it out, and, in my opinion, he should be restrained, or an awkward boundary question may be raised with the Chinese without any compensating advantage”. (italics mine to highlight) In the circumstances, since Elias had represented to the Supreme Government, it was a relatively simple matter for him to ensure that the plans were dropped. He told the Wazir that he had reported against the scheme to the Resident, and pretty soon the subservient Wazir succumbed and assured him that he did not intend to implement it. Elias was also promptly meticulously backed up by the Government of India. A letter dated 1st September was sent to the officer on Special Duty (as the Resident was called before 1885) instructing him to take suitable opportunity of advising His Highness the Maharaja not to occupy Shahidulla”. Elias had already killed the proposal. Thus, the English after treacherously perniciously successfully preventing the reunification of Kashmir vis-à-vis the outpost in the Shahidulla area in Kashmir and the natural and historic border of Kashmir on the Kuen Lun range and beyond, by vehemently opposing it at a time when the Chinese were least concerned or bothered of the alien trans- Kuen Lun areas in the highlands of Kashmir , beyond their restive eastern Turkistan dominion “and had literally washed their hands of it”, rather than as much as supporting the endeavour much less aiding it, prevented the unification of Kashmir.


Thus, after successfully preventing the reunification of Kashmir, when the Chinese encroached into Kashmir in 1892 and illegally placed an alleged boundary mark pillar deep in Kashmir along with a board which stated that “this board is under the sway of the Kakan, the Chinese Emperor, “the distance was taken from Shahidulla, which was the limit of Kashmir territory, Raja Sir Amar Singh in his letter of 2 November,” described this action as ‘a transgression of Khatais (Cathays) over the Ladakh boundary. The Kashmir State has no intention of making any encroachment on foreign territory, but I hope you and the Government of India will enable (i.e. assist) it to maintain the territory already acquired and in its possession, and in that case, the unlawful aggression of the Khatais must be repelled , and the original boundary restoured”, The Wazir Wazart of Ladakh, complained to the Vice- President of the Jammu –Kashmir State Council of the Chinese Amban who had constructed the Pillar. The Wazir said that as far as he had been able to ascertain, his own frontier was considered upto Shahidulla, 16 stages from Ladakh, where one of his predecessors had built a fort which was still standing. This proved, he added “the state frontier extends to that place”, the English did nothing of the sort and betrayed the Government and people of Kashmir. As a matter of fact, the English had surreptitiously illegally decided that “the Indus watershed should be considered as the boundary of the Kashmir territories to the north”, vide the instructions of the Government of India of 21 August 1890 stealthily sent to the Resident’s predecessor, Nisbet, and asked the Resident to convey this to the Durbar and the Joint Commissioners in Ladakh. But Nisbet had either deliberately or accidently done what deserved to be done with the instruction, either keep the instructions to himself or better still destroy it! The English were hand in glove with the Chinese in their occupation of the areas of Kashmir between the Kuen Lun range and the Karakoram.


The statement of John Lall author of “Aksaichin and Sino-Indian Conflict” at page 95 that , “Considering that the State’s officials abandoned Shahidulla as long ago as 1867, the Raja’s assertion that it was in their possession was a flight of fancy”, is a misrepresentation per se and a lie that needs to be refuted. First Mr. John Lall, The State of Kashmir never abandoned the Shahidulla outpost commanding the Kilian and Kathaitham areas in northern Kashmir and the Kuenlun range in 1867 as claimed by you. As late as in 1885, at a time when the Chinese were least concerned or bothered of the alien trans- Kuen Lun areas in the highlands of Kashmir , beyond their eastern Turkistan dominion “and had literally washed their hands of it”, the Government of Kashmir prepared to unify Kashmir and the Wazir of Ladakh , Pandit Radha Kishen initiated steps to restore the out post of Shahidulla, but this legitimate act had been opposed slyly by the English who even if they did not support it, even if they did not aid it, could have at the least ignored the endeavour as none of their business to decide for the Kashmiris where the northern border of their state, was! And desisted from objecting to the endeavour. So Mr. John Lall, you are required to refrain from lying and making misrepresentation to suit your perverted mindset and whims and fancies. Facts are facts and nothing can change them. Neither you, nor any one of your lot!

“What”, if one asks the Hypothetical question, “if the English government had not opposed the endeavour of the Government of Kashmir to reunify Kashmir?” The English, if they did not support it, even if they did not aid it, could have at the least ignored the endeavour as none of their business to decide for the Kashmiris where the northern border of their state, was! And desisted from objecting to the endeavour. The practical authority of the Chinese, as Ney Elias and Younghusband consistently maintained, had never extended south of their outposts at Sanju and Kilian along the northern foothills of the Kuenlun range. At that time, when the Chinese were least concerned or bothered of the alien trans- Kuen Lun areas (trans- Kuen Lun from the East Turkistani side and cis- Kuen Lun from the Kashmiri side) in the highlands of Kashmir , beyond their restive eastern Turkistan dominion “and had literally washed their hands of it”, the Kashmir would have easily reunified Kashmir vis-à-vis the outpost in the Shahidulla area in Kashmir and the natural and historic border of Kashmir on the Kuen Lun range and beyond at Kilian, Kathai Tam and Sanju areas in Kashmir. Once the Government of Kashmir consolidated the unification which was the easiest thing given the absence of imperialist adversaries, the Chinese would never ever have even considered or harboured the very idea or notion of controlling an area beyond the natural frontiers of their restive dominion along northern foothills of the Kuen Lun range as stated by Ney Elias , “they told me that they considered their line of ‘chatze’, or posts, as their frontier – viz. , Kugiar, Kilian, Sanju, Kiria, etc.- and that they had no concern with what lay beyond the mountains”. The subsequent incident of planting an alleged border pillar by the Chinese deep inside the territory of Kashmir would never have occurred. The Chinese were given a carte blanche and an invitation to trespass into Kashmir by the act of the English in opposing the unification of Kashmir and conspiring with the Chinese, and once they got a foothold in Kashmir their imperialist designs were facilitated manifold giving result to all the present plethora of border troubles and further facilitating the hostile anti-Indian cartographers like the notorious hostile Times Atlas in their endeavour to go berserk in their experiments to draw various anti-Indian maps! And the whole of the Sub-continent of India is suffering today due to the wanton mischief indulged by the English then. This is a wake up call for the People of India and Paksitan and the rest of the sub-continent of India. The English may purportedly support one side against the other, but are they really supporting a side? They are just playing off one side against the other and indulging to attain their nefarious designs. We south Asians should be weary of them and see through their nefarious designs and treat it with the contempt it deserves. At the end of the day, reunification of India is the only solution.


Unfortunately the Government of Kashmir succumbed to the English threats and intimidations in the year 1885 and did not implement the endeavour immediately but kept it pending and delayed it though the Government of Kashmir never forfeited the sovereignty of Kashmir over the Shahidulla out post area extending to Kilian pass and Kathaitham as was reiterated by Raja Sir Amar Singh in his aforesaid letter of 2 November, and the English having opposed and sabotaged the endeavour were required and were bound to protect the territory of Kashmir when in the first place the Chinese encroached into the area and placed alleged border pillars as a result of the deliberate nefarious and willful act of the English and the English were entirely responsible for the encroachment and were liable and bound to redress the situation and restore the status quo anti , but the English had been all along hand-in-glove with the Chinese and covertly conspiring with the Chinese to cheat and betray the Government and people of Kashmir and had surreptitiously and stealthily in collusion with the Chinese already taken a decision for the People of Kashmir that “the Indus watershed should be considered as the boundary of the Kashmir territories to the north”.


When Kashmir acceded to the rest of India , the territorial integrity of Kashmir vis-à-vis the Kathai Tam and Kilian and the rest of the Kuen Lun range in Kashmir wherein are the Hindutash and Kukalang passes in Kashmir remained intact and un-forfeited despite the crooked mechanisms of the English. Dafdar the northernmost part of Kashmir bordering the former Russian Empire turned “U.S.S.R.” continued to be part of Kashmir. To quote Nehru himself from his telegram dated 26 October, 1947 to the British Prime Minister, Clement Attlee, he says, "Kashmir's Northern frontiers, as you are aware, run in common with those of three countries, Afghanistan, `the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics' and `China' ". Also, the Maharaja Hari Singh states in his correspondence with Lord Mountbatten dated October 26, 1947, “Besides, my State has a common boundary with ‘the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics’ and with ‘China’ ” It was this territorial integrity of Kashmir which was recorded and preserved in the Constitution of India after the independence of India in Entry 15 in the First Schedule of the Constitution of India. Entry 15 reads “The territory which immediately before the commencement of this Constitution was comprised in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir”, and thankfully, the same continues to this date with out any obnoxious and illegal amendment.

How the new Indian Express cheats and tricks Indians!

How the new Indian Express cheats and tricks Indians!

24 die as blast rock Peshawar hotel is a new item in the Indian Express dated May 15 2007.

Check the map appearing in the news item. You will find that the Pakistan occupied part of Kashmir is depicted as not a part of India. Is that all? Prima facie it would appear to the ignorant Indians that all that the map just depicts is that the Pakistan occupied part of Kashmir is shown as not part of Kashmir.

But look more carefully! The area in Kashmir illegally ceded by the Pakistanis to the Chinese inter alia in the Raskam and Shaksgam Areas of Kanjut (capital is Baltit in the Hunza valley) including inter alia Dafdar, Kukalang and Kilian - Khathaithum are also depicted simply as not a part of Kashmir.

But wait, It does not stop there! Look again more carefully! Is there any thing more obnoxious, offensive and derogatory in the map? It is not just that only the Pakistan occupied part of Kashmir is depicted as not a part of India even the rest of Kashmir is also depicted as not part of India. How does the Indian Express manage to successfully trick and cheat the ignorant Indians? They have meticulously and cleverly superimposed or overlaid the legend “Islamabad” on the what according to the Indian Express is the International Boundary between “India” and Kashmir so that the vast majority of the ignorant Indians are oblivious of the pernicious act of the Indian Express.

So finally, does it at least end there would be the poignant question in your mind. Probe and you will then notice that the Aksai Chin area in eastern Kashmir has also been depicted as not a part of Kashmir. The Indian Express has stealthily and surreptitiously not shown the whole of Aksai Chin in the map to prevent people from realizing that Aksai Chin has not been depicted as part of Kashmir. More over, to trick Indians they have cleverly super imposed the right margin of the map with the illegal international border which they have depicted separating Aksai Chin from the rest of Kashmir.

The most repugnant thing about the map is not just that Kashmir has been depicted as not part of India. It is also is not just that Pakistan occupied part of Kashmir is not depicted as part of Kashmir. It is also not just that the area in Kashmir illegally ceded by the Pakistanis to the Chinese inter alia in the Raskam and Shaksgam Areas of Kanjut (capital of Kanjut is Baltit in the Hunza valley) including inter alia Dafdar, Kukalang and Kilian - Khathaithum are also depicted simply as not a part of Kashmir. It is also is not just that India’s beloved pride, the Aksai Chin area in eastern Kashmir has been depicted as not a part of Kashmir. It is the manner in which they went about doing the aforesaid depiction taking recourse to stealth and the scale of the map. They have wantonly taken advantage of the ignorance of the oblivious Indians to cheat and trick Indians. By deceit and trickery, they are actually teasing the ignorant and oblivious Indians by saying “look, we will humiliate and insult you in every conceivable way and also get away with it and you miserable oblivious Indians will not even notice or realise …..” And we Indians are actually paying them to do it!

Let's take strategic high ground: Wen

Response dated 12-04-2005 at 2233 hours IST to the statement of the Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Apr 04, 2005 that India and China handle their relations from a ‘‘strategic high ground’’


Of course India must consider her relationship with China on the principle of ‘Strategic High ground’ particularly the High ground in the Kuen lun range in Kashmir. While India must consider all peaceful means for the peaceful liberation of all the areas occupied by China including the area in Kashmir on our side of the Kuen lun range in Kashmir India cannot wait eternally for the Chinese to vacate the illegal occupation of this inalienable and sacred part of India, and will have to find alternate means to make the Chinese vacate this inalienable and sacred part of India .

Arunachal Pradesh, an inalienable part of India

One has to understand the perverted mentality of an alien brutal military occupying power to appreciate the antics of China! I am referring to the recent expression of regret by a Chinese diplomat to the statement of External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee that Arunachal was a part of India. An occupying force that she is, China wants to appropriate as part of Tibet any territory except those that are intrinsically and inherently part of Tibet. She claims Arunachal Pradesh which is beyond the Tibetan Plateau and thus also not geographically a part of Tibet , as part of occupied Tibet but illegally and blatantly denies the fact that inter alia Altyn Tagh, Tsinghai, Tsang, Amdo and Kham, which are intrinsically and inherently part of Tibet, and also historically an inalienable part of Tibet and also geographically a part of Tibet, are parts of Tibet. This is because China wants to illegally retain as much of Tibet as possible even when Tibet becomes independent in the future. Similarly China has clubbed occupied Aksai Chin to the south of Hindutash in Ladakh in Kashmir with East Turkistan and not with adjacent Tibet despite the cultural links between Kashmir and Tibet and the geographical contiguity of Ladakh and Tibet, because they envisage that It will be Tibet that first becomes independent ahead of East Turkistan and in their estimation, and scheme of things, they will be able perpetrate the occupation East Turkistan for a longer period of time! India too should reiterate that Khotan to the north of the Hindutash pass in the Kuen Lun range in Kashmir is historically part of India and demand the return of Khotan back to India.

If the Chinese have the audacity to claim Arunachal Pradesh, India should also vehemently reiterate that Khotan to the north of the Hindutash pass in the Kuen Lun range in Kashmir is historically part of India and demand the return of Khotan back to India. The horrible and outrageous antics of Mr. Rajiv Gandhi and J.N. Dixit in their effort to “clinch” a deal with the Chinese and “solve” the border issue gave me nightmares and cold sweat ,but luckily India was saved then from their impending “achievement” .



The proud Nation of India should demand that the so-called border talks with China be called off . The same is a nullity, is ab initio illegal,under duress,ultra vires the Constitution of India, and null and void and any agreement with China will be illegal, and null and void and is clandestine and surreptitious, and is solely meant to serve the purpose of China and is based on subservience and will be repudiated by the proud people of India. The Government of India should reiterate the liberation of all occupied parts of Kashmir including India's beloved Aksai Chin and the Kuen Lun range in northern Kashmir wherein are situate Dafdar in the Taghdumbash Pamir area in northern Kashmir, Kukalang Pass north of Bazar Dara in Kanjut in Kashmir, Yangi Pass north of Kulanaldi in the Raskam area of Kanjut in Kashmir, Kilian including Khathaithum in Kashmir, Sanju north of Ali Nazar in Kashmir and Hindutash Pass north of Sumgal in Ladakh in north eastern Kashmir, now presently under Chinese illegal military occupation

But with the Government of India , subservient and absolutely bereft of Convictions and any motivation to protect the territorial integrity of India and with well dressed subservient Indian morons and buffoons purportedly on behalf of India holding farcical and ab initio illegal border talks with the Chinese which are null and void , Indians will have to wake up and only a veritable revolution can save India!

I warn that The so called Border talks with China is only going to precipitate the mess and create a situation where Indians will have to undo the mess by denouncing and repudiating the so called agreement reached with China. I have already sent communications to the Prime Minister of India stating the aforesaid facts. I request all patriotic Indians to do the same. Jai Hind.

A proposal for the joint defence of the Indian Sub-continent made in the year 1959 by President Ayub Khan

Imagine a common South Asian Army defending the external Inter-national borders of the Sub-continent of India, say at the Kuen Lun border of Kashmir at Kukalang in Kanjut, rather than the armies of India and Pakistan fighting each other at Kargil! It could just have happened...

‘The crux of the whole matter was that the armies of both the countries were continuing to face each other when they could have been released to defend their respective territories’….’the need to have a joint defence originates from the basic fact that India and Pakistan lived in the same region which had to be defended after an understanding between the people of the two countries’…if we ‘disengage our armed forces from facing inwards as they do today, and face them outward , I feel we shall have a good chance of preventing a recurrence of the history of the past, which was that whenever this sub continent was divided –and often it was divided –some one or the other invited an outsider to step in’.

Proposal for the joint defence of the Indian Sub-continent made by President Ayub Khan In the year 1959 which he repeated in the year 1960, ab initio and point blank rejected by Nehru to avoid antagonising relations, albeit servile, with China, even at the cost of our own South Asian solidarity!

Letter to the Editor, Indian Express on Mr. C.Raja Mohan

Letter to the Editor, Indian Express

Apropos the article titled 'Why Delhi's ready with red carpet for Governor of a Chinese province', The New Indian Express dated Sunday October 10 2004 by C.Raja Mohan, some of Mr. C.Raja Mohan's unscrupulous and antinational statements need to be pointed out and condemned. By stating that 'The closest parallel that would help explain the political significance of Tiliwaldi's visit would be, say, a trip to Beijing by the Chief Minister of J&K, Mufti Mohammad Sayeed!', he is with ulterior motives, maliciously and wilfully equating Kashmir which is intrinsically an integral and inalienable part of India with East Turkistan which is under the illegal and military occupation of China and is called by them as Xinjiang, when as a matter of fact Kashmir can at the most be compared with Shansi or Shensi , the Muslim majority areas in extreme far north west China. It is only a question of time when the Indian Government will extend moral and diplomatic support and recognition to the indigenous struggle of the people of East Turkistan for Independence and freedom from the brutal illegal Chinese occupation. The struggle for independence going on in East Turkistan is no more a manifestation of Islamic Extremism or Terrorism than the struggle for independence in occupied Tibet, a Buddhist terrorist Struggle. China cannot be permitted to take advantage of the current war being waged against Al-Qaida and Taliban by the territories like the United States, to its own advantage to undermine the indigenous and just struggle of the East
Turkistanis for independence from the illegal and brutal military occupation by China and the blatant violation of Human Rights of the people of East Turkistan, to her own advantage, and to perpetrate her own illegal occupation of East Turkistan. Mr. Ismail Tiliwaldi, should rather be told unequivocally and in no uncertain terms of India's solidarity with the people of East Turkistan in their just struggle for East Turkistan and that their Human Rights including right to assemble and to express their views peacefully should be protected. It is common Knowledge that China has not an iota of claim over East Turkistan with which she does not share even a common border. Just like Western Turkistan, the other remaining part of Turkistan consisting of the Central Asian States of the former Soviet Union including Khazakhistan became independent, East Turkistan also will eventually become Independent. Mr. C. Raja Mohan by stating that 'The Aksai Chin plateau, an extension of Ladakh to the east, is now part of Xinjiang. So is the Shaksgam valley in J&K ceded by Pakistan to China in 1963', has wilfully made unscrupulous Anti-national statement as though India's Beloved pride, the Aksai Chin area an integral and inalienable part of Ladakh in Kashmir extending from the Kuen lun Range in Kashmir wherein are situate inter alia the Kilian Pass including Kathaithum,Sanju and Hindutash in Kashmir, is a part of 'China'.


Mr. Raja Mohan makes arbitrary, unilateral and unscrupulous statements when he states that Aksai Chin 'an extension of Ladakh to the east, is now part of Xinjiang. So is the Shaksgam valley in J&K ceded by Pakistan to China in 1963'. While he point blank illegally states that Aksai Chin is 'part of China', He states that the Shaksgam valley in 'J&K', what ever he means by 'J&K', is a part of 'China'. How can the Shaksgam valley which is situate in Baltistan south of the Raskam area in Kanjut and the Kukalang pass on the International border of India with East Turkistan be simultaneously part of both 'J&K' and China? Besides his statement that 'New Delhi could head east in Ladakh and connect up with Tibet-Xinjiang Highway and access Kashgar to the north west…. Given the sensitive territorial questions in play, Indian decisions to use these routes would require strong political will' is obnoxious and anti national. The only strong political will that is now required is to reiterate that the territorial integrity of Kashmir is paramount and sacred and will and can never be compromised and not a needle point of Kashmir's territory on our side of the Kuenlun Range in Kashmir on which are situate the Kukalang pass north of Bazardara in Raskam in Kanjut, Yangi north of Kulanaldi in Kanjut, Kilian including Kathaithum north of Shahidullah in Ladakh, Sanju pass north of Ali Nazar and Hindutash 36.20N 78.45E, Kuenlun, India north of Sumgal in Ladakh will be given to the Chinese and all the aforesaid area of Kashmir under illegal Chinese occupation shall be liberated. The so called Tibet-Xinjiang Highway referred to is the Pan Kashmir Highway that the Chinese have constructed in Pakistan-Occupied and China Occupied parts of Kashmir, running through Gilgit in Pakistan occupied Kashmir, and through Bazar Dara and Kulanaldi in the Raskam area of Kanjut in the area in Kashmir under Chinese illegal military occupation, and through Shahidullah in Ladakh, Portash, Sumgal, Sumnal and Thaldat and other areas of Aksai Chin in Ladakh along the Gomati or Karakash Valley in north eastern Kashmir, much of which area is exquisite given the fact that not a blade of grass grows in the area is a wilderness area. The so called 'Border' talks between India and China currently going on when India's position is that of a vanquished country whose territory is under illegal occupation, and her position is subservient, is obnoxious and an exercise in futility.

The rapid economic integration and physical connectivity between East Turkistan and the rest of Turkistan can only expedite the ultimate and eventual emotional political unification of the whole of Turkistan area which was illegally and arbitrarily partitioned by the Russian and Chinese empires. Russia, however treated Western Turkistan as separate Republics in the Soviet Union and not part of Russia, while China pretended as though East Turkistan was part of China. The Kuldja incident of 1871 is a famous facet in the rivalry between Russia and China, two alien powers to occupy and control Turkistan.

The people of East Turkistan have never had territorial dispute with India and the people of East Turkistan have always regarded the high and mighty Kuenlun range as the natural southern border of their Country and what ever happened south of the mighty Kuenlun range in the highlands of Kashmir had nothing to do with them and was an internal affair of India. Eventually East Turkistan will become Independent like she was briefly until 1877 under the East Turkistani national hero Yaqub Beg, and then India should demarcate her boundary with East Turkistan on the Kuenlun Range. Yes, indeed, 'When the Indian establishment serenades 'Governor' of China's Xinjiang province Ismail Tiliwaldi in the capital next week, it will revive deeply embedded memories from the past- and hold a promise to a bold new future' in ways more than one. Such unscrupulous persons like Mr. Raja Mohan should not be permitted to write and make Anti National statements and get away with it. The crux of the issue is that there is no Nationalist press in India unlike in other countries where the Press protects and espouses the cause of their own respective countries. In India it is different! When the foreign press draws goes berserk and draws anti-Indian maps, the press in India should be paying them with the same coin. But the so called Indian Press itself wilfully depicts Anti-Indian Maps and the Indian press works for and sub serves the interests of hostile Anti-Indian western Countries, and China, and depicts anti-Indian maps with impunity.

NDTV’s Anti -Indian mentality

In the News item from New York from NDTV’s reporter one Maya Mirchandani on the subject of Musharaf at U.N., dated 16 Friday September 2005, The aforesaid reporter with an ulterior motive and part of a diabolical conspiracy, not having the best interests of neither India or even Pakistan, spoke about the possibility of inter alia Umar Abdullah traveling across the LOC and into “ the rest of Pakistan”. The item was repeatedly telecast. This is yet another instance of the Anti National Character of the NDTV, which also shows maps of the Kashmir interalia depicting the areas Kashmir illegally given by Pakistan to the Chinese occupiers of East Turkistan extending from K2 and Shaksgam in the interior of Kashmir to Kukalang Pass in northern Kashmir on the Kuenlun area in northern Kashmir. This is being willfully done because of NDTV’s Anti -Indian mentality. However nothing is going to change the fact that the northern border of Kashmir is on the Kuenlun Range to the north of Dafdar in Kanjut, Kukalang pass to the north of Bazardara in Raskam in Kanjut, Yangi pass to the north of Kulanaldi in Raskam in Kanjut, Kilian including Khathaithum to the north of Shahidullah in Ladakh, Sanju to the north of Ali Nazar in Ladakh, Hindutash Pass to the north of Sumgal in Ladakh in India's beloved pride, the Aksai Chin area in north eastern Kashmir. India is going to liberate this sacred inalienable area of Kashmir under blatant Chinese illegal military occupation no matter what NDTVdoes, and whether they like it or not. Even if the Indian Government engages in whimsical and subservient so called ‘border’ talks with the Chinese.

NDTV’s reporter has arbitrarily and illegally suo motto described an area which includes Gilgit and Dafdar which are an integral and inalienable part of India as stated in the Constitution of India, as part of Pakistan

Do they have the insolence to think or are they so naïve to think that we Indians do not under stand or do not comprehend the meaning of what they say? And that they can get away with what they say. And they also do not care. How dare she says such things as though Kashmir is her personal property!

India should storm NDTV’s premises, confiscate the premises And put them behind bars and the said Maya Mirchandani should not be allowed to report as a journalist and should be prosecuted and action should be taken against her and her lot in accordance with law.
