JUST AS THERE IS NO INDIA:

Omar Abdullah trying to internationalise Kashmir issue: BJP (IANS, Oct 8, 2010)

Keeping up its attack on Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah over his remarks that the state had acceded to India and not merged, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Friday termed his comments "laughable" and accused him of trying to internationalise the Kashmir issue.

Senior BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi said here that various princely states had acceded to India and had not merged and Jammu and Kashmir was no exception.

"His comments are laughable. Various princely states joined India under the Instrument of Accession. There was no instrument of merger," Joshi said.
