I have few reservations on the status of Azad Kashmir b/c we lost East Pakistan in pursue of Kashmir and still Azad Kashmir is not the part of Pakistan?????????????????????????????

East Pakistan was not lost because of Kashmir, it was a separate war in 1971. The first two wars and the Kargil Conflict were about Kashmir.

OK but the Status of Azad Kashmir is questionable.
