In his book-Raiders in Kashmir, Pakistani General Akbar Khan narrated his nation’s position within the Kashmir battle. The ebook states that Pakistan’s technique was to bleed India by guerilla and sabotage motion in Jammu and Kashmir.

As a part of Operation Gulmarg, Pakistan unleashed its tribal militia on Jammu and Kashmir on October 22, 1947.

New York Times journalist Robert Trumbull wrote, “Baramulla had been stripped of its wealth and young women before the tribesmen fled in face of the advancing Indian troops. Surviving residents estimated that 3,000 of their fellow townsmen, including four Europeans and a retired British Army Officer, Colonel Dykes, and his pregnant wife, were slain,” narrating the incident. 

When the Indian Army reached Baramulla, only one,000 individuals have been left alive within the village which had a inhabitants of about 14,000. The Pakistan-based militia was on their method to Srinagar, burning villages, looting, pillaging, and raping ladies.

According to the out there data, the raiders didn’t contact Muslims, however looted Hindus and burnt the homes of Sikhs, and killed them. This widespread arson and loot in Baramulla compelled Sikhs and Hindus to flee. 

The raiders, largely tribesmen with just a few Punjabi Muslims, have been led by Pirs, Pakistan Army, and Frontier Constabulary officers. 

This first Indo-Pakistan struggle over Kashmir was a restricted affair with Islamabad, but it surely sowed the seeds of steady struggle between the 2 South Asian neighbours.
