I don't know if you are Pakistani or not but they claim none of Kashmir or Jammu or Ladakh. They claim that it should be an independent country. They just shelter "freedom fighters" who are militants/terrorists in the region. And since religion plays a big role in their claim, demography of the region is damn important. Also Jammu and Ladakh aren't the areas where Indian govt rules with such a heavy hand as they do in Kashmir.
I'm not Pakistani, but this information is easily available on Wikipedia.
-Wikipedia on Kashmir. Also if you open the Wikipedia page on Pakistan or India you'll find that Kashmir is highlighted as "territory claimed but not controlled". Also while I'm not familiar with the details, Indian repression is very much existent in all of Jammu and Kashmir. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_abuses_in_Jammu_and_Kashmir#Massacres
At least read the link you are sharing my man. Also Wikipedia doesn't provide enough context for you to understand the conflict.
I did.
True enough, but I'm not trying to understand the conflict or making a deep point that would require such an understanding. I'm just saying that Kashmir division and Kashmir are different things. Also while they're not especially committed, both Pakistan and India have "we own Kashmir" as their official position. This isn't controversial stuff; it's literally what both sides are saying in public.
I know you guys are arguing, but I want to compliment both of you for pulling from good sources and trying to make relevant point to each other - I just went looking for anything useful on reddit and it’s full of clear brigading trying to crow the loudest about how they won and the other side wants to punch your dog.
So honestly, thank you for both being to a higher standard, even when you disagree.
