Abstract: This paper is a modest attempt to understand the movement in Kashmir against the oppressive Dogra rule. It tries to address a larger historiographical problem of modern South Asia that gives primacy to the freedom struggle against the British and accorded lesser attention to people’s movement in the princely states. The political mobilization in princely India did not get adequate academic attention as they are seen as backward in consciousness and intent as they are organized around communitarian, caste and regional lines. The paper underscores the manifold meanings of freedom struggle in South Asia.
