Kashmir

Kashmir - actually Jammu and Kashmir - It is the northernmost province of India, a mountainous region on the Indian subcontinent. Since the outbreak of the First Indo-Pakistani War in 1947, predominantly Muslim Kashmir has been de facto divided between India, Pakistan, and China. Pakistan administers the territory of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltista, while China administers the Aksai Chin region and the Shaksgam Valley. India continues to claim all of historical Kashmir.

The Kashmir conflict, in which the armies of the three countries face each other, is a protracted affair dating back to 1947, but has intensified under the administration of Nanenda Modi, who previously played a controversial role as Prime Minister of Gujarat in the 2002 riots, in which an estimated thousand Muslims were killed over a period of three weeks. Modi is accused of doing nothing to stop the aggression of Hindus against Muslims. History is now repeating itself in Kashmir, with Modi in the role of Prime Minister of India. Meanwhile, separatist movements are advocating for the restoration of Kashmir's independence.

Kashmir is rich in water; Ka means 'water' and Shimir means 'drying', so Kashmir would therefore be "dried up". meaning "water", comparable to the term "polder" in our country. Access to water is essential for agriculture, and the food situation in Kashmir in general. Fish is part of Kashmir, not only freshly caught in the lakes, rivers, and streams, but also in the world's largest trout farms.
