I am from j and k . Kashmiri is my mother tongue . I learner hindi in CBSE schools till 10 and English till 1st year of college . No one forced the languages on me . Now I can converse with many many people .
But can't understand this exclusiveness of south Indians . Why do they fear Hindi ? They will learn Tamil , Telugu but not hindi .
I can't read or write Urdu but can understand it to some extent . I love Punjabi songs . Bus drivers mostly play Punjabi songs . We don't threaten them for not playing kashmiri dogri and hindi songs . There are about 7 languages in my state alone .
Don't tell me it's because of Aryan Dravidian divide ?
Our schools have national anthem in morning school prayers since 1990's and I am from muslim majority state , can't understand the fuss that was created towards it in rest of India sometime ago .

Thankfully Jammu and Ladakh divisions are peaceful .
My family hails from Anantnag which has become a hotbed of terrorists .
Makes me sad
Never been to Kashmir though
