Dear Editor,
Let there be no doubt that national identity and national integration can never be compromised and significantly supersede religious identity. While we need to address the genuine aspirations of Kashmiris within the ambit of our sovereignty and interests, we cannot remain mere spectators to the subversive activities of militants and intrusion by Pakistan. Kashmiris should also be more forthcoming in integrating themselves with mainstream India. Continuing to alienate themselves and toeing the line of Pakistan is unfortunate.
