How do Kashmiris have such strong unity ?

The title basically. With everything going on in Azad Kashmir rn and in the past for that matter. The resilience they have shown is commendable.

My question is. How have they formed such a strong community in the first place. They are not being lead by anyone.

They have taken a collective stand. And no one is backing down. How do you create something like that ? They are just peacefully getting their demands met while being up against ruthless state machinery.

It should be studied for real 😅.

Any insight from someone who is actually from there ? What is the social structure like ? Who takes these decisions to take a stand and how do they get propagated and followed through?
