Akhnoor: The Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday warned the neighbouring country Pakistan for setting up training camps in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir and said that the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir is incomplete without POK.
Addressing the security personnel on the occasion of 9th Armed Forces Veterans’ Day in Akhnoor region of Jammu Singh said that Jammu and Kashmir is incomplete without PoK. PoK is nothing more than a foreign territory for Pakistan.
“PoK’s land is being used to run the business of terrorism. Terrorist training camps are being run in PoK… Pakistan will have to destroy them otherwise.”
He said that Lal Bahadur Shastri government at the Centre could have ended cross-border terrorism by converting the tactical advantage gained in the war into a strategic advantage.
“The war between India and Pakistan was fought in Akhnoor in 1965. India succeeded in thwarting the efforts of the Pakistani army. .Pakistan has been promoting illegal infiltration and terrorism since 1965. Cross-border terrorism would have ended in 1965 itself, but the then central government was unable to convert the tactical advantage gained in the war into a strategic advantage,” he said.
The Defence Minister added that “Our Muslim brothers have sacrificed their lives fighting against terrorism.” He pointed out that more than 80 percent of terrorists entering India are from Pakistan.
He said that one of the top priorities of the Centre is to bridge the “whatever gap exists between Kashmir and the rest of the country.”
“The top priority of our government is to bridge whatever gap exists between Kashmir and the rest of the country. Steps are being taken in this direction by J&K CM Omar Abdullah…The Veterans Day celebrations in Akhnoor prove that Akhnoor has the same place in our hearts as Delhi,” he said.
