The identity of Jammu & Kashmir described as the crown of India has evoved through history. During the colonial period Dogras brought together fine eco-linguistic and cultural regions to form their kingdoms that lasted almost a hundred years. The state of Jammu & Kashmir which was left with the three regions after independence is still the most diverse region of the country, a meeting ground of religions and cultures, languages and ethnic types.
