Its immature saying so.Kashmir may have many things to do with South Indians & bengalis. India have people of different ethnicities living in it.We dont discriminate based on it.Now you are classifying us and himachalites,punjabies,bengalis and south indians.You seem to have gone blind because of your racial prejudice.   what do kashmiries really have to do with bengalis or south indians? i mean maybe the pandits share the same religion, but thats it, the muslims kashmiries have nothing to do with them at all

nah,,, The comment I made Persian/Afghan culture thing. I think now that Kashmiris have their own kinda culture.

Yes I would agree with this, they are more linked to persian/afghan culture then indian. They are up to the north and they have less influence from India, because of where Kashmir is located. That is why many kashmiri's want Kashmir to be their own country because of how different they are from India.

What is up with this 'original Aryan' crap? why is it that Indians and KP's love to say that and go on and on about it. Most koshur speaking Kashmiris have KP tribe names even today, and those KP tribes have had mixed genetics from long ago. You will find Sapru's with tibetan blood, Siroojis with Persian blood etc etc, its been mixed for a very long time. Due to this huge diversity in gene pool, you get people in the same family ranging from sino looks to caucasian looks.

And as for Aryan DNA, I'm Kashmiri from KP lineage (been in the valley for very very long time), my Ydna is J2a1b, having a 95%+ similarity to cohen blood line (lol), 90% similarity to Greeks according to genebase, which pretty much proves that my Y-ancestor moved to Kashmir (yonks ago). Ancestors were bhuddist and hindu at one time. converted to islam not that long ago.

Originally posted by saba kashmir is the same? have you ever been to kashmir? see the difference between Kashmir Valley and Jammu, its pretty different. Also the areas of Ladakh in Kashmir are more like Tibet. So no all of Kashmir is not same
