What would Indo-Pakistani relations be like if there was no Kashmir dispute?

Let's say that Hari Singh manages to get independence for Kashmir included into the Independence Act or that India backs off due to a greater threat of reverse Kashmirs than in OTL.
 
I don't think independence was possible during partition, Kashmir would either go to India or Pakistan.

There would still be intense rivalry, but altogether the relationship would be much healthier. Without the rallying cause of Kashmir, Pakistani politics would also be quite different. The military would have less power relative to the civilian government. Pakistan is not going to be Turkey, but perhaps closer to Egypt.
