Nehru's cable
to attlee on Kashmir
|
Excerpts of telegram dated 26 October, 1947 from Jawaharlal Nehru to the British Prime Minister,Clement Attlee.
"For Prime Minister United Kingdom from Prime Minister India.
We have received urgent appeal for assistance from Kashmir Government. We would be disposed to give favourable consideration to such, request from any friendly State. KashmirÍs Northern frontiers, as you are aware, run in common with those of three countries, Afghanistan, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and China. Security of Kashmir, which must depend upon control of internal tranquillity and existence of stable Government, is vital to security of India especially since part of Southern boundary of Kashmir and India are common. Helping Kashmir, therefore, is an obligation of national interest to India. We are giving urgent consideration to question as to what assistance we can give to State to defend itself.
I should like to make it clear that question of aiding Kashmir in this emergency is not designed in any way to influence the State to accede to India. Our view which we have repeatedly made public is that the question of accession in any disputed territory or State must be decided in accordance with wishes of people and we adhere to this view. It is quite clear, however, that no free expression of will of people of Kashmir is possible if external aggression succeeds in imperilling integrity of its territory. I have thought it desirable to inform you of situation because of its threat of international complications.

Four days later, in his telegram of 31 October, 1947, to Pakistan Prime Minister Liaqat li Khan, Nehru said:
.... "Our assurance that we shall withdraw our troops from kashmir as soon as peace and order are restored and leave the decision about the future of the State to the people of the State is not merely a pledge to your government but also the people of Kashmir and to the world."

Nehru's Pledge
|
Extract from NehruÍs Broadcast on 2 November, 1947.
"We have declared that the fate of Kashmir is ultimately to be decided by the people. That pledge we have given, and the Maharaja has supported it not only to the people of Kashmir but the world. We will not, and cannot back out of it. We are prepared when peace and law and order have been established to have a referendum held under international auspices like the United Nations. We want it to be a fair and just reference to the people, and we shall accept their verdict. I can imagine no fairer and juster offer."
