Interesting! A non Kashmiri becoming a minister of Kashmir. As much as I hate to say this but at least in "Kafur" India occupied Kashmir, the elected minister is still a Kashmiri. After changing the demography of Kashmir do we still have any right to call for UN resolution ?
So how many states are there in Azad Jammu & Kashmir and who are all chief ministers of these states. Also tell us about the constitution of Azad Jammu & Kashmir.
