This is one of the points I always bring up with people discuss Islam, Kashmir or Pakistan. The current incarnation of India with the current borders was an invention of the British, even with Pakistan and Bangladesh included, and nothing about the country's borders are native. There is generally a "civilization" akin to Europe that starts somewhere in North-West India and south to the various islands off the southern coast of India, but was never and has never been united under the western concept of "nation state" and has only at the most been united under an imperial hegemony where one entity dominates the continent, and hence it is really silly to argue about the borders of India.
