Article Abstract:
Some fear that the movement in Kashmir to separate from India is led by Islamic fundamentalists, but this does not seem to be the case. While the separatists are Muslim, they do not seem to be trying to establish an Islamic government. India blames Pakistan for the unrest in Kashmir.
