CM Assam says, if BJP gets 400 seats PoK will merges with India

Guwahati: Addressing a rally in Jharkhand’s Ramgarh, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Wednesday mentioned that Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) will be merged with India if BJP gets 400 seats in the Lok Sabha elections.

Sarma said it was a natural progression of the party’s plans.

“When we crossed 300 (seats) we scrapped Article 370 and built the Ayodhya temple. Once we cross 400, we will ensure that Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir merges with India,” Sarma said.

“The real game will start after crossing 400. For the last few days, slogans of freedom have been raised in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Crossing 400 means return of PoK to India,” he added.

“Agitation is taking place every day in PoK and people are protesting against Pakistan, holding the Indian flag,” the Assam Chief Minister added.

Sarma remarked that during the Congress rule, there was no discussion in Parliament regarding Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

“When the Congress government was in power, we were told that one Kashmir is in India and the other in Pakistan. It was never discussed in our Parliament that Pakistan has ‘Occupied Kashmir,’ it is actually ours,” he said.

The Assam Chief Minister went on to that the injustice on India by Aurangzeb and Babar (Mughal leaders) has been minimised with the consecration of the Ram temple in Ayodhya.
