I recently came across an article that referred to India Held Kashmir. Now while many Indians are familiar with POK or Pakistan Occupied Kashmir I’m not sure how many have heard this term.
There is a saying that history doesn’t determine who is right. It determines who is left. It is the winner who writes the history books. With both sides claiming their own victory and scripting their own histories, can one really blame the people for their mutual distrust of each other? If your whole life you were raised to believe that America was your number one enemy, would you be able to accept any help from them without worrying about the fine print or the possibility of a Trojan horse?
If a name can cause enmity between nations or people, I guess there is a lot in a name after all.

That was rightly said, history is written by those who win.This name game is a carefully orchestrated propaganda for disinformation.Those who really get caught in between are the poor people on the both sides.
