Referendums have been a long-established mechanism for resolving territorial conflict

What is critical to the success of any referendum is that the international community, regardless of their views on the underlying claims of a referendum, judge it in its entirety and not lose sight of the goal of the vote, and that of most referendums, that a peaceful resolution is of greater moral value than continued violence.

The Referendum

PUNJAB REFERENDUM is a campaign to liberate Punjab, currently occupied by India. The campaign aims to gage the will of the Punjabi people with regards to reestablishing Punjab as a nation state. Once we establish consensus on the question of independence, we will then present the case to the United Nations for reestablishing the country of Punjab.
