I disagree with your narrative of the tribals having liberated Kashmir, as the local populace in both AJK and G&B did rise up against the Maharaja, and before that, a civilian struggle was in play from the 1930s. The Armed Struggle towards the end was a fruit of the labours of Kashmiri resistance both privately (that is to say, dissent against the regime and their puppets - peasants rising up against feudals).
Though the Tribals did help in the cause, for which they have my respect and thanks, I am not sure whether it was in the best of interests for Kashmir for their involvement (but one cannot fathom too much on the past and what could have been done, it is hopeless and as Buddha saying goes: "Dwell not on the past, dream not of the future, focus the mind on the present").
What is interesting to note is the fact that looters (and some were much worse than that) were blamed on the tribes as a whole, even just after partitition, which raises the question in my mind: Is collective punishment and terming a British-era relic that were are oblivious to? I think so, at the time of writing this post, as it existed during the British era against other ethnic groups but has been mostly eradicated, but due to the ruggedness and undeveloped nature of FATA, which has only led to its political isolation and lack of person-to-person interaction which breaks down such barriers, this mentality persists.
Infact, I'm probably the first to raise objection to any attacks against Pakistan by others in the UK. But being Kashmiri was always, and still is an integral part of me - I admire Jinnah strongly, and his vision, but think that the best solution for the Kashmir problem is an indigenous solution by Kashmiris, otherwise the solution will continue to be in its current dire predicament and can only worsen (neither Pakistan nor India will budge an inch on the LoC).
