'''[[United Nations]] [[United Nations Security Council Resolution|Security Council Resolution]] 47''', adopted on [[April 21]], [[1948]], When after hearing arguments from both India and Pakistan the Council increased the size of the Commission established by [[United Nations Security Council Resolution 39]] to five members, instructed the Commission to go to the [[Indian subcontinent|subcontinent]] and help the governments of India and Pakistan restore peace and order to the region and prepare for a plebiscite to decide the fate of [[Kashmir]]. The resolution was passed by [[United Nations Security Council]] under [[Chapter VI of the United Nations Charter|chapter VI]] of UN Charter.<ref>One of the earliest applications of Chapter VI of the United Nations Charter was on the Kashmir dispute. Following negotiations and agreements among the parties, the Security Council adopted resolution 47 (1948) of 21 April 1948 which promised a free and fair plebiscite under UN auspices to enable the people of Jammu and Kashmir to determine whether they wish to join Pakistan or India.

The resolution recommended that in order to ensure the impartiality of the plebiscite Pakistan withdraw all tribesmen and nationals who entered the region for the purpose of fighting and that India leave only the minimum number of troops needed to keep civil order. The Commission was also to send as many observers into the region as it deemed necessary to ensure the provisions of the resolution were enacted.
