Union Home Minister Amit Shah mentioned the demonstrations in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir during a speech in West Bengal's Serampore. Shah reiterated his stance that Pakistan Occupied Kashmir is an integral part of India and emphasized plans to reclaim it soon.
He highlighted the contrast between the peaceful situation in Kashmir post the revocation of Article 370 in 2019 and the current protests for freedom in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Shah also criticized Congress leaders for their lack of support in reclaiming Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, citing concerns about nuclear weapons as invalid reasons for inaction.
