Actually , it might have been good riddance but in retrospect (like in '47 only or something) when the region was undergoing massive reorganization & India nowhere close to being the power it is now . But now , it can't afford such thing as :
a) it will be perceived in global community as a big defeat for an emerging global power and that too at the hand of a destitute state thereby considerably shaking global confidence upon India
+
b) with a brazen arch enemy Pakistan & mighty,greedy China hands in gloves against India , it will also tend to boost separatist's movement elsewhere in India engineered by adversaries like Khalistan (Pakistan already trying hard for it) , NE states , Gorkhaland , Dravidanadu or any other yet unforseen thing risking integrity of India
So for now , Kashmir is a gangrene which India cannot afford to sever currently ; it just needs to go with peel & heal approach .
what's the point of holding onto 1.4 billion people, it is unmanageable at the moment. And going to be worse in future with population expected to reach 1.4 b and possibly even 2b. Separate country into 4 or at least 2. Why should south suffer and have govt sitting in Delhi who barely have interest in welfare of 4-5 southern states. Far east is same story.
Let states separate from India if they want to, I dont understand this greed, look at Singapore, some state might grow like that since it is efficient to manage smaller population/demographics.
only 9 percent current population of Kashmir wants to be under Indian rule, are we suggesting 90% should sell their land to Indians? we dont know their story, they definitely have a story nevertheless. 40000 Muslims have been killed by Indian army, this remains a fact, they have a reason to hate army and govt
Lets not be delusional, they prefer Pakistan since they dont kill them. Poverty is preferred over life, I would choose the same.
