Northernmost region of the Indian subcontinent (7)

I believe the answer is:

kashmir

(Other definitions for kashmir that I've seen before include "Region claimed by both India and Pakistan" , "disputed area" , "disputed region of Asia" , "Territory disputed between India and Pakistan since 1947" , "Region on the border of India and Pakistan" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
