I did not deny that kashmiris need to be given their rights. What rights are reasonable and to what extend we can compromise is something that needs to be seriously discussed.
In future, when asia looks like europe, am sure we will give them choice(like scots are given now), before that it will only lead to futher bloodshed and multinational game arena there. Afganistan is a good reminder of what happens when big players start playing chess in a sovereign entity that does not have means to stop it.
Basically anything short of Independence should be on the table. That negotiation should not happen because pakistan has capability to fund and destabilize the area. We need to make sure the influence is minimized first.
And supporting independent balochistan is one such way. Its immaterial whether baloch wanted in 47 or in 97. I dont know what percentage of baloch want independence but lets assume 100% of kashmiris want independence and only 0.1 % baloch want independence. Still its imperative for us to support it for now.
Ultimately of course these all will be negotiated and settled.
No you don't have to do it because you claim that Pakistan is funding insurgency but because Kashmiris want it and pardon me but Pakistan believes and would support the stance of Kashmiris so I don't agree with the bloodshed part. But seems you are more concerned about the stance of your state than what the Kashmiris wish for that is a fair chance to voice their opinions and to be granted the rights they have asked for decades. No, India would never agree for a plebiscite and you would always look for the tit for tat exchange no matter how different the two conditions might be from each other and I am talking about today not in 97 or in 47. Its naive to even compare them but I can't make you see it since you obviously don't even have a clue about Balochistan. If you did then you wouldn't be even saying this so no reason contemplating that.
