Further members of ethnic groups must identify themselves and are identified by others as belonging to distinctive group. Pluralism is defined as the existence or toleration of groups within a society or state, whether ethnic, cultural, political, and religious. Plural societies are those which are characterized by conditions of cultural diversity which is manifested in terms of ethnicity, race, religion, language, territory, caste or tribe. Ethnic pluralism describes the situation in which different ethnic groups are consolidated into political or governmental units. Jammu and Kashmir is ethnically plural because it posses diversity of cultures within the same political unit consisting of a multiplicity of ethnic groups based on religion, territory, language, tribe or caste. The state of Jammu and Kashmir has been the home of plurality of ethnic groups who migrate from north-west (Dards), south (Gujjars & Rajputs), east (Ladakhis) and south-east (Paharis) directions in the ancient past. The alien races, ethnic groups and various religions and philosophies have influenced the cultural ethos and mode of living of the people of the State (Hussain 2005:61). Jammu and Kashmir has the distinction of having variegated cultural blend, making it distinct from the rest of the country because of its unique history and geography. The name Kashmir implies land desiccated from water "ka" (the water) and "Shimeera" (reclamation). In modern times, the people of Kashmir have shortened it into "Kasheer" in their tongue (Singh 2003: xvii). The recorded history of Kashmir begins with Ashoka. He introduced Buddhism to Kashmir in the third century B.C. which was later strengthened by Kanishka. Huns got the control of the Valley in the early Sixth century. The Valley regained freedom in 530 A.D but soon came under the rule of Ujjain Empire. After the decline of the Vikramaditya dynasty, the valley has its own rulers. There was a synthesis of Hindu and Buddhist cultures (Bhatt and Bhargava 2005:17, 18). In the 8* century, Kashmir rose to become the centre of great kingdom under Lalitaditya Muktapida (697-738 A.D) who extended his rule to North India and parts of Central Asia. th tVi Islam came to Kashmir during 13 and 14 century A.D. The name associated with the earliest propagation of Islam is that of Sufi saint Saiyed Sharaf-ud-Din alias Bulbul Shah. Sultan Zain-ul-Abidin who ascended the throne in 1417 A.D and ruled nearly for half a century was the most famous ruler and was deservedly sumamed Budshah or the great king. Later Chaks over ran Haider Shah, son of Zain-ul- Abidin. The Chak rule began in Kashmir in 1561 A.D and lasted till 1587 A.D. The Mughal Emperor Akbar conquered Kashmir in 1587 A.D, but Aurangzeb's successor was a weak ruler and it were the Afghans who saw an opportunity and invaded Kashmir. In 1752 A.D, Kashmir passed on from the feeble control of the Mughal emperor of the time to Ahmad Shah Abdali of Afghanistan. In 1819 A.D, the Sikh ruler of Punjab Maharaja Ranjit Singh evicted the Pathans from Kashmir with the help of the Dogra Army of Jammu.

RADHIKA GUPTA MAX PLANCK INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF RELIGIOUS & ETHNIC DIVERSITY THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING LADAKHI: AFFECT AND ARTIFICE IN KARGIL Ladakh often tends to be associated predominantly with its Tibetan Buddhist inhabitants in the wider public imagination both in India and abroad. It comes as a surprise to many that half the population of this region is Muslim, the majority belonging to the Twelver Shi‘i sect and living in Kargil district. This article will discuss the importance of being Ladakhi for Kargili Shias through an ethnographic account of a journey I shared with a group of cultural activists from Leh to Kargil.

It was usual in all censuses to collect and publish information on race, tribes and castes. The Constitution lays down that "the state shall promote with special care educational and economic interests of the weaker sections of the people and, in parti­ cular, of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes and shall protect them from social injustice and all forms of exploitation". To assist states in fulfiHing their responsibility in this regard the 1961 Census provided a series of special tabulations of the social and economic data on Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The lists of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes are notified by the Presi· dent under the Constitution and the Parliament is empowered to include or exclude from the lists any caste or tribe. No other source can claim the same authenticity and comprehensiveness as the census of India to help the Government in taking de· cisions on matters such as these.
