Kashmir Intifada is in fact the history of esistance movement of state. Failure of Pakistani leadership in 1947 to acknowledge the popular leadership of the state led to their failure to secure the accession of the state has been examined in detail. Their attempt to forcibly annex the state laid the foundations of the conflict. Moreover, utter failure of Indian Security forces guarding the LOC, coupled with the failure of State nd central intelligence agencies, to prevent Kashmiri youth crossing the LOC for arms training and their subsequent return with arms, is a sad commentary on their functioning. More serious dereliction of duty by them is the acqurescing of the broad day mass exodus of Kashmiri youth to Pak from Dumari Gali in North Kashmir in winters of 1990 amounts to treason on the part of entire chain of command of armed forces. This dereliction of duty pushed the state into death and destruction.
