ASSALAM-O-ALAIKUM!

Jammu and Kashmir, particularly AJK and GB were made part of Pakistan in 1947, when people of the former J and K state of British India, revolted against the then ruler and took up arms against the then ruler and subsequently against the Indian Invading forces. However due to political expediency and on the premise that the State will be put through a plebiscite, the integration process was put into abeyance. 

Now that a period of 70 years has passed and plebiscite is a remote possibility, it is imperative that the liberated areas are legally and constitutionally integrated into Pakistan and the liberated areas are given equal rights and privileges. Delaying tactics on different excuses and deprivation of full citizenship rights/ non representation in decision making process is gradually alienating a segment of deprived youth. So, a process of political, constitutional and administrative integration must be set into motion before it is too late.
