Hi:
Yes, what you said before is what you say now. Chinese still do entertain territorial acquisitive thoughts. China has population pressure and much of it is not arable. That being so, they will naturally keep looking for greener pastures. Acquisition of independent Kashmir without a matching military is a cakewalk; Moreover, China has to have buffer states between its land mass and other countries; in this instance, Kashmir will serve as a buffer state, south of the border. UN Security Council will act after the fact and can't project the military might it needs to displace the entrenched troops.
Independent Kashmir is not good for India's secular credentials and territorial integrity. Checking on the ground reality, Indians don't seem too enthused to give up even an inch of land in Kashmir, what may come including a long nuclear winter.
