Conclusion: Balawaristan is not a widely-used term, and its use is linked to separatism/nationalism, which according to some sources [1] is being supported by Indians. As usual, the veracity of these reports is hard to ascertain.
A Google search on the term Balawaristan, even after attempting to exclude the National Front ( Balawaristan -"National Front" -BNF ), still yields results that are mostly related to separatist/nationalist groups or movements, or to discussions about them. I know of people native to the Gilgit area who had not heard of the name Balawaristan until recently. Criticforaday 22:00, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] I removed INDIA GEOGRAPHICAL STUB
Someone incorrectly put an "Indian Geographical Stub" tag which is incorrect because Northern Areas are in pakistani teritory. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.224.89.150 (talk) 19:09, 15 April 2007 (UTC).
