The entire native Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), as it existed in British India, acceded (in October 1947) to the succeeding Union of India (post-partitioned India). Therefore, Pakistan invaded India with the aim of acquiring the 'Jammu and Kashmir' area (including the strategically significant Indian territory of Gilgit, Baltistan and Ladakh - which are situated in J&K) by aggression. The invasion was met with stiff resistance. The Pakistani marauders and troops (though large in number) were no match for the Indian Jawans. The brave Maharaja - His Highness General Sir Hari Singh - refused to leave his State, even when urged on in the interest of his own safety and that of his family. He commended his defense forces as well as civilian population (Hindu and Muslim) for actively participating in fighting the Pakistani invaders. India complained to the UNO regarding this illegal invasion, whereby Pakistan violated the UN Charter and all rules of civilized nations. The UN passed several resolutions directing Pakistan to vacate its troops, but to no avail. This book explains all the resolutions passed in this matter, which the UN termed as "The India-Pakistan Question".
