The political status of Gilgit-Baltistan should be changed from "administrative territory" to "dependent territory," since the territory has never been officially incorporated into Pakistan. The following two statements in the article verify that fact: "While administratively controlled by Pakistan since the First Kashmir War, Gilgit-Baltistan has never been formally integrated into the Pakistani state and does not participate in Pakistan's constitutional political affairs." "Officially, the Pakistan government had rejected Gilgit-Baltistani calls for integration with Pakistan on the grounds that it would jeopardise its demands for the whole Kashmir issue to be resolved according to UN resolutions."

The Administrative Map of Pakistan that was published by the CIA in 2020 contains the following important statement: "Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan are not constitutionally part of Pakistan."

Early History - typo
Second sentence in 4th paragraph ... "In the late 600s CE, the rising Tibetan Empire wrestled control of the region from the Chinese." should read "In the late 600s CE, the rising Tibetan Empire wrested control of the region from the Chinese."
The correct phrase is "wrested control". See

The map of the disputed Kashmir region that is currently shown in Wikipedia article titled "Gilgit-Baltistan"
The map of the disputed Kashmir region that is currently shown is out of date and should be replaced by the following map:
Why do you think it is out of date? I updated both maps. There is no difference, only the one currently in place is higher-def than the other. Best,

Look at the Kashmir Region map. It is clearly out of date. It shows "Northern Areas" instead of "Gilgit-Baltistan," "North-West Frontier Province" instead of "Khyber Pakhtunkhwa," and the former Indian state of Jammu & Kashmir, which has now been divided into the two Indian union territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh.

Thanks for noticing. Someone is playing games with the file, reverting it to an older version which affects all the Kashmir related pages. Please keep checking the image file’s history. Pinging @
Abecedare,
RegentsPark, and
Vanamonde93: I vaguely remember them complaining about Demchuk and claiming a moral duty about something or other. Maybe it was on my user talk page.

@
Atelerixia: The one that currently appears on this page, for example, is
this version which does not have the
Northern Areas and other older names. If you see it has been changed again to an older version (and has thus affected all the pages in which it is being use), please inform me. Thanks

Why Aksai Chin is not mentioned since 1965?
`~ᴀɴᴋʀᴀᴊ ɢɪʀɪ🎇✨ 06:10, 22 October 2023 (UTC)reply
I'm not sure what that means. Please rephrase in a manner that makes the context clear.
Fowler&fowler«Talk» 09:27, 22 October 2023 (UTC)reply
Oh, My apologies. Aksai Chin was part of India since independence (1947) and was lost to China in
1962 war(apologies again it is not 1965). However, India never recognized it being territory of China. Claiming sovereignty over territory and terming it Aksai Chin which roughly translated to 'Snatched by China'. Therefore, I was asking why it was not written since 1962??
`~ᴀɴᴋʀᴀᴊ ɢɪʀɪ🎇✨ 16:10, 22 October 2023 (UTC)reply
It was part of India in the Indian government's view, but not in the Chinese government's, especially not after the second world war, and more especially the Chinese revolution, when the dust had settled on China's turbulent times. The Indians had no clue of the Chinese road construction in the later 1950s, until the Americans informed them. Please read
Neville Maxwell's India's China War. It was that remote. In any case, contemporary maps don't refer to history. Maps of India don't say "since 1947."
