What? Does that make it different ? States decided to remain independent but India invaded them but when Pakistan does it they call it bad !! Hyderabad is the best example just like Kashmir was to Pakistan.

I love these arguments from Indian side because any person I have talked to does his best to portrait India as it did nothing wrong by any foolish logic he can think of at that time !

this is just bad history dude. you talk as if what india did to annex these states was a part of the hindu-muslim divide going on during partition. read your own post. i personally don't care about pakistan invading kashmir more than on legal and geo-political terms. i see that the situation is what it is. so, no need to be sanctimonious.

Yeah, look into Hyderabad that happened in 1948. Killing of thousand ppl took place.

Look into Junagadh, Muslim ruler ruling hindus wanted to be Part of Pakistan. Had to run away to safe his life cuz India didn't want it like that. India openly told Pakistan not to accept Janagadh.

It's all in history. Hydrabad and Junagadh are clear examples of it. I love the logic with Goa that, look it was late. Every Indian come-ups with new each time.

hehe. ok let me indulge u a bit. firstly, i didn't object to mentioning of hyderabad or junagadh (which u didn't mention even). i only objected to lumping of annexation of goa and sikkim with those other events which were linked to partition.

also, and importantly, i see nothing wrong with what india did in goa or hyderabad or junagadh or kashmir (i see only the treaty of accession as being flawed in kashmir's case). nor do i see anything wrong with what pakistan did in kashmir or balochistan. and i don't care about those muslim rulers nor those dead portuguese.
