Shiv Sena welcomes Army Chief’s remark over PoK

Welcoming General MM Naravane’s remark over Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK), Shiv Sena said that Army Chief said nothing wrong as PoK is an integral part of India and urged the Centre to not get back on the issue as this will be the best way to teach “Tukde-Tukde gang” a lesson.

“The new Indian Army Chief General Naravane has shown Marathi pride soon after taking charge. General Naravane has said it in clear terms that PoK is ours...if Centre gives orders, then we will capture PoK,” Shiv Sena said in its mouthpiece Saamna.

“The General said nothing wrong. Most of the terror training camps are running in PoK and these terror camps are run with the support of Pakistani Army and ISI,” it added.

Referring to the surgical strike conducted by India in the same region, the Saamna editorial said Pakistan’s habits have not changed even after that.

The editorial while referring to the killing of soldiers in Valley, said that the Kashmir issue comes to the fore only for political and electoral purposes.

“That is why we welcome

General Naravane’s new policy. General Naravane’s says Indian Parliament had in February, 1994 had passed a resolution that entire Jammu and Kashmir, including PoK, is an inseparable part of India,” it said.

Asserting that General Naravane is asking for orders from Centre, the editorial said, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi will give such orders...this is what the country wishes.”

Hailing Home Minister Amit Shah for the abrogation of Article 370, the editorial said, “Now as soon as General Naravane gets orders from Modi-Shah, PoK will be ours and Veer Savarkar will be garlanded with flowers of Akhand Bharat.”
