Development in J&K will prompt people in PoK to revolt and join India: Governor 9/18/2019 10:29:32 PM Early Times Report SRINAGAR, Sept 18: Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik on Wednesday said that instead of taking over Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) by force, the development in Jammu and Kashmir should prompt the people on the other side of Line of Control (LoC) to "revolt" and join India. Addressing a function here, Malik said that some ministers have been talking about taking back PoK from Pakistan by force. "I have been seeing from the past 10 to 15 days that many of our ministers, who do not get to talk on international matters, have been repeatedly talking about invading PoK, taking it back etc. My belief is that if PoK is the next target, we can take it on the basis on the development of Jammu and Kashmir. "If we can give love and respect to the people of Jammu and Kashmir and secure the future of their children, bring development and prosperity, I can guarantee that within a year or so there will be a revolt in PoK and you will get it without a confrontation ... the residents of PoK will on their own say that they want to come to this side. This is my roadmap for PoK," the governor said. Malik urged the countrymen to treat people from Kashmir with love and respect and said officers have been placed in every state to help Kashmiri students. "There are 22,000 Kashmiri students studying in different states of the country and they should be treated, love. People of Kashmir should be treated with love and respect," he added. Referring to the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) registering cases to probe the alleged irregularities in the Roshni scheme, he said it apparently turned out to be a Rs 25,000 crore scam. "The implementation of the scheme has been such that it has proved to be a Rs 25,000 crore scam ... When I came here, the first thing I did was to end the Roshni scheme and we handed the Roshni cases to the ACB for investigation," he said.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
