  • Kashmir Under the Afghans (1752-1819)
    The International Journal Of Humanities & Social Studies (ISSN 2321 - 9203) www.theijhss.com THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES & SOCIAL STUDIES Kashmir under the Afghans (1752-1819) Zaheen Research Scholar, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi, India Abstract: The current paper ventures to understand the participation of Afghan rule in the regional transformation of Kashmir. The emergence of Afghans on the political forefront of Kashmir in the middle of 18th century was a direct outcome of Mughal administration. Afghan subadars tried to establish their political hegemony on the remnants of the Mughal structures which had already started dwindling under the later rulers of Mughal dynasty. Unlike pre-Mughal period, the political situation prevailing in the adjoining territories had comparatively greater impact on the political and administrative functioning of the region of Kashmir, itself. Though disgruntled nobility and internal administrative instability had a role to play in the frequently changing dynastic rule in post-Mughal Kashmir but the dynamics of political formations in the adjoining regions, especially in Lahore, Sind and Punjab determined the course of political history of Kashmir under and after the Afghans. The Afghans ruled Kashmir for 67 years which witnessed the rule of Pathan emperors at the Imperial court and around 26 subadars in the province of Kashmir. Though, it was an extension of Mughal administrative machinery and institutions but the position and functioning of the significant provincial officials like subadars, sahibkars, diwans, etc. underwent certain changes. The Afghan rulers didn't engage themselves in overhauling the administrative measures in the valley but continued with the systems pertaining to governance, initiated by early Mughals, except a few official positions especially in the revenue administration of the region.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis focuses on the militarisation of a secessionist movement involving Kashmiri militants and Indian military forces in the north Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. The term militarisation in this thesis connotes the militarised state and, more primarily, the growing influence of the military within the state that has profound implications for state and society. In contrast to conventional approaches that distinguish between inter and intra-state military conflict, this thesis analyses India’s external and domestic crises of militarisation within a single analytic frame to argue that both dimensions are not mutually exclusive but have common political origins. Kashmir, this thesis further argues, exemplifies the intersection between militarisation’s external and domestic dimensions.

His greatness cannot be paralleled by any of his contemporaries. He was a benign ruler and always cared for the welfare of his subjects irrespective of their caste or creed. The Maharaja had full faith in the broad based harmony and cooperation with which the Hindus and the Muslims lived and maintained peace and prosperity. The evidence of the whole hearted co-operation of the Hindu Courtiers, Generals and Administrators is not far to seek. The spirit of Maharaja Ranjit Singh's rule was secular. In the present thesis I have selected only the Hindu Courtiers and Officials at the Lahore Darbar.
