But as for as princely state of Jammu and Kashmir is concerned the British intervention resulted in positive outcomes. The British intervention resulted in modernization of various fields of Jammu and Kashmir. The introduction of modern education, land settlements ,modern health care, transportation etc. where the outcomes of British intervention. This paper highlights that British intervention resulted in modernization of Jammu and Kashmir not only in short run but in long run. Key Words: INTRODUCTION Once British became absolute political power in the Indian sub-continent, there policy towards princely states remained of two type’s i.e., direct and indirect policy. Direct policy was promoted towards the states which were directly ruled by British through their governors and indirect policy was conceded towards the states, ruled indirectly by British through their residents. The preference to bring a state under direct or indirect policy was mostly determined by state’s geography and economic resources. British annexed Punjab in 1846 and Kashmir being part of Lahore Darbar also came under the suzerainty of British. But at that time fate of Kashmir was determined by the need of time when British found sale of Kashmir inevitable because Punjab was yet to consolidate and North-West Frontier and Afghanistan unsettled.

Abstract: Kashmir was regarded as a great seat of Sanskrit learning. With the coming of Muslims in valley Persian began to dominate the scene and eventually became the court language. But soon education began to lose its ground with the subsequent rulers. Kashmir was lagging behind in Modern Education in the subcontinent. Modern education came to Kashmir only with the advent of Christian missionaries. Education spread rapidly with the establishment of Jammu and Kashmir board in 1975. From 1989 number of militant activities in the state increased with the passage of time and resulted in the havoc of education. In this paper an attempt has been made to analyze the history of education in Kashmir and to trace it's trajectory to contemporary times. This paper will also try to objectively highlight the turning points in the history of education in Kashmir.

  • JKCCS PAYS TRIBUTE to AASIA on HER FIRST DEATH ANNIVERSARY By: Tabasum Ishtiaq
    Editorial: REDEFINING LIVES Death, it seems inspires the living. However, the deathly silence enshrouding the valley is broken frequently by staccato gunfire or burst of Kalashnikov. Each day brings another confrontation, another ambush, a few more dead, a lot more hatred and the shadows of death and despair lengthen menacingly. Thousands of Kashmiri youth have died leaving behind wailing mothers, sisters or wives. Rapes and molestation have become the order of the day. Each day passes and brings in more fears of what is going to happen. There is so much uncertainty that thinking of a future seems a luxury, which we cannot afford. Nevertheless, all this is no threat to the struggle of the women who continue to fight. That is the reason that they struggle, at times sacrificing their lives for the just cause i.e. to live with dignity and peace. Burdened with the irony of gross human rights violations, their miseries are more than enough to appeal to the conscience of the world community. Yet, these frail figures resonate a spark of liberal devotion. Kashmiri women fighting against all odds have come up more resolute and stanch in their efforts for justice. Marginalizing their inadequacy of being illiterate, having no information on their rights and options in the conflict area and enshrouded by a largely conservative society, these women have shown immense courage and strength. Fighting for justice in their own ways and within their own limitations each of these women epitomize hope. Hope for other women to shed their inhibitions and act. Be it Fatima, Hasina Shamli or Saja, their names hardly do matter.
