BBC: As Scotland votes, Kashmir's "missing" referendum

As Scotland votes in an independence referendum, Andrew Whitehead looks at the failure to hold a referendum in Kashmir first promised in 1947 ... what the historian Yasmin Khan describes as "probably the most important referendum that never happened".

'Several thousand Kashmiris will be voting in a historic and much awaited referendum, this week. That vote will determine whether a region with a distinct identity can successfully secede from a much larger nation. Their ballots will be cast, however, in Glasgow - not in Srinagar or Jammu.'
