This book tries to give you a glance at Kashmir's rich culture, geography, people, and the conflict which has eclipsed this paradise. I have divided this book into three parts, and I want my readers to read a simple and understandable story, giving them a 360-degree view of Kashmir, as seen from my eyes. The idea of this book came to me in the year 2016. During the month of May, I was invited by some activists in New Jersey, USA, to join them for a peaceful protest in front of the UN against the visit and speech of the Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's on Jammu and Kashmir; a state of India. I had never participated in such a procession in the past, so anxiously joined them. This was an eye-opening event where I met Kashmiri Pandits, heard their real painful stories, met Balochistan leaders, heard about their pitiful life. This is where I felt I need to understand the problem and became curious to know why this conflict has not been resolved even after 70 years. Was any sincere effort made, what is the hope for millions of Kashmiris, will they continue in this same state forever? Kashmir, a beautiful part of our country, sandwiched between newly-created Pakistan and truncated India from the bloody partition of 1947, remains an unresolved mystery, similar to the Bermuda Triangle and hence the name of this book. Today older generations who have lived through the bloody ethnic violence do not want to talk about it, as there's a lot of painful memories attached. The younger generation is either vaguely aware or does not know what the hell this Kashmir crisis is? This book is an attempt to reach out to both the sections of the masses. It builds a new correlation on why this beautiful land becomes synonymous with the Bermuda Triangle of India. How Kalashnikov, Kaffir, and Kahwa came to represent the three vertices of the triangle, turning this paradise to perdition, where the search for panacea continues. The USP of this book is the 7 Cs, the mantras which can be converted into strategic and operational approaches in resolving this very vexed issue. For readers, five of the 7 Cs mantras suggested in this book have been mentioned in the speech by then Home Minister during one of his visits to Kashmir. There has been a consistent demand by the UN, Pakistan, and mostly Sunni Muslim Kashmiris for the 'Plebiscite,' a big No, and a taboo topic for the Indian political setup. Today's history writing is not limited to pure academics alone. The advent of social media into the lives of the common man has greatly influenced people's perception of facts and helped in forming their narratives on the circumstances. King's historians and their interpretation of history are daily challenged. This book is written in a simple and straightforward language giving the readers a 360-degree view of Kashmir conflict, focusing on its geography, history, religion, as well as all the off-the-shelf solutions to this current problem. At the same time, the author has shared his very own out-of-box approach for resolving the Kashmir conflict, which resonance with the current government's strikingly similar plan. Hope the politicians, historians, administrators, scholars, and a lay reader too will like this pure offering. Numerous colored historical pictures and maps have been included to enhance the utility of the book.The USP for this Amazon edition is the "Plebiscite" model proposed by the Author to the Government of India. This came to his mind after attending the Nov 2019 Congressional hearing on Kashmir in the Capitol Hill by the partisan jury. To make all mouth shut, forever, the Author came with this idea and proposing through this book to the GOI. How? Buy and read the book!
