Kashmir question

Sir, — The Insight on Kashmir ("Kashmir: still in search of a policy," Nov. 28) was interesting. India and Pakistan can share Kashmir, with the Dal Lake belonging to both of them.

Sir, — It is little realised that Pervez Musharraf is the first ever Pakistani leader to publicly articulate a solution other than a plebiscite for the Kashmir issue. Also, the seven regions proposal of the General is not defined by demographic considerations but by natural boundaries.

Sure enough, for determining the `status' of each region he does not exclude the religious criterion but that goes with geographic and cultural factors as well. His proposal deserves consideration.

Tirumalai Raman,
Chennai
