Academic Paper from the year 2017 in the subject Literature - Comparative Literature, , language: English, abstract: Since the complex phenomenon of Kashmir conflict as we know, it dates back to the middle of the twentieth century. It is rooted in the history of the partition of the British colonial empire between India and Pakistan after World War 2. The situation in Kashmir since 1989, has affected the life of the people, living in Kashmir. The approach of paramilitary forces to the people of Kashmir is humiliated and inhuman. The barbaric behavior of army personnel aggravated human life in the vale. In 1987 after the failure of an election, for two years, there was a political unrest in the valley between political parties, MUF in opposition of two central Indian government sponsored political parties, National Conference and Congress. Indian union government found MUF a threat to the ‘promise’ Indian Union Government had given to the people of the state in 1947 on the accession of the state to Indian Union. Muslim Union Front was supported by the whole valley and everyone in the valley argued that the elections were deceitful and fraudulent, and which government should come next was preplanned by the central government of India. The political unrest lasted for two years, in 1989 when Central Government of India deployed paramilitary and military forces in every residential area of the valley that complicated the social life in every respect and their oppressive behavior towards Kashmir natives insisted them to stand an armed rebellion movement against military forces and Indian Domination.
