PoK return – Bharat Pulse News

Speaking at the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) Business Summit in New Delhi, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh made a strong statement about the future of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). He expressed confidence that the people of PoK will “voluntarily return” to India one day, not by force but through emotional and cultural affinity. Singh remarked, “We have full faith that those of our brothers who are geographically and politically separated from us today will also return to the mainstream of India someday, listening to their voice of soul.” He emphasized that the people of PoK are, and have always been, part of India’s extended family. Terrorism and PoK Only Topics for Pakistan Talks The Defence Minister also underscored a recalibrated approach to Pakistan. He declared that India will now entertain discussions with Islamabad on only two matters — terrorism and the status of PoK. Rajnath Singh made it clear that "the business of terrorism is no longer cost-effective" for Pakistan, suggesting that past actions, including India’s strikes under Operation Sindoor, have delivered the message forcefully. His remarks come in the wake of escalating border tensions and repeated instances of cross-border terrorism that have strained Indo-Pak relations further. Singh’s tone signaled a clear departure from the ambiguity of earlier peace overtures, instead leaning into a firm and assertive national security posture. India’s Defence Capabilities Impress World Post-Operation Sindoor Singh also praised India's indigenous defence production and highlighted how it played a key role in recent military operations. Citing Operation Sindoor, he stated that India's self-reliant platforms and systems performed effectively, impressing observers around the world. He pointed out the leap in defence exports, which have risen from under ₹1,000 crore a decade ago to ₹23,500 crore today. This, he said, is evidence of India's growing capability and confidence in handling security threats without relying on foreign suppliers. In his remarks, Singh painted a picture of a confident, self-reliant India that is prepared not only to defend itself against threats but also to shape the region’s political geography through diplomacy backed by strength.
