Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday said that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi`s leadership Jammu and Kashmir will touch great heights and "people from the Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir will demand that they want to be part of India".
"Just wait, soon people of Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) will demand that they want to be with India and not under the rule of Pakistan. And the day this happens, a goal of our Parliament will also be accomplished," he further stated while addressing `Jammu and Kashmir Jan Samvad rally` via video conferencing.
"Earlier in Kashmir, protests demanding `azaadi for Kashmir` were held and flags of Pakistan and ISIS were raised. However, but now only the Indian flag is seen there," he further stated.
Singh had on Saturday tweeted that he will hold the ' Jammu Kashmir Jan Samvad rally' via video conferencing at 11 AM.
His address is a part of a series of virtual meetings held by senior BJP leaders to reach out to the people on the occasion of completion of one year of Narendra Modi government`s second tenure in office.
At the 'Maharashtra Jan-Samvad rally' held through video conferencing on June 8, Singh said the talks between India and China over the border dispute will continue and asserted that the country's leadership will not compromise on the issue.
"The border dispute between India and China has been ongoing for a long time. We want to solve it as soon as possible. The June 6 talks were very positive, and India and China have agreed to continue talks to resolve the ongoing tussle. I want to assure people that leadership of the country is in strong hands and we will not compromise on the country`s self-respect," Singh had said.
