NEW DELHI: RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on Saturday said that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) was a room in India that strangers have occupied, adding that it must be reclaimed. Speaking at an event in Satna, Madhya Pradesh, he made the remarks while talking about the enduring unity of undivided India .
"Many Sindhi brothers are sitting here. I am very happy. They did not go to Pakistan; they went to undivided India ... circumstances have sent us here from that home because that home and this home are not different," Bhagwat said.
Referring further to undivided India, he added, "The whole of India is one home, but someone has removed the one room of our house where my table, chair, and clothes used to be kept. They have occupied it."
Then calling for "taking it back", he said, "Tomorrow I have to take it back and hence we have to remember that the undivided India." His remarks drew loud applause from the audience.
His remarks drew loud applause from the crowd.
The RSS chief's remarks come just days after the Indian govt slammed Pakistan for the ongoing protests in POK, saying Islamabad must be held accountable for its “oppressive approach” and “horrific” human rights violations.
Pakistan authorities had on Thursday confirmed that eight people had died in four days of violent protests in the region that India maintains is illegally occupied by Pakistan.
“We have seen reports on protests in several areas of Pakistan-occupied Jammu & Kashmir, including brutalities by Pakistani forces on innocent civilians. We believe that it is a natural consequence of Pakistan’s oppressive approach and its systemic plundering of resources from these territories, which remain under its forcible and illegal occupation,” said MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal at a media briefing, while reiterating that POK was and will always remain an integral part of India.
