#3 It said the Kashmiri people should be allowed to decide their future and asked the parties concerned to respect human rights

Kashmiris have the right to vote unlike most OIC subjects. They run their own affairs. They freely choose their own leaders, several of whom are/were powerful Indian federal ministers (Home minister, Foreign minister, Prime Minister - Nehru) They voted overwhelmingly in the first post partition election, signalling approval of the local legislature and their state consitution (unlike in countries of the OIC).

Their state enjoys protected status under the Indian constitution in order to maintain their demographic status and unique culture.

No law passed by the Indian parliament is valid in Kashmir unless also passed by the Kashmiri legislature. This includes taxes.

Representation without taxation. Kashmiris have it.

Other Indians may not settle or buy land in Kashmir.

Funny that in the 1960s, the Beatles and many others stayed in a peaceful Kashmir. No talk of war then, or in the 50s or the 70s. Only during the last stages of the Afghan jihad, did Pakistan have the jihadi manpower, finances and weapons to destabilize Kashmir, launching the jihad in 1987.
