Pak cleverly changed complete demography of PoK, Gilgit-Baltistan: General Rawat
Tumblr media
NEW DELHI: Army Chief General Bipin Rawat has said that Pakistan has very cleverly changed the complete demography of so-called Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Gilgit -Baltistan while adding that the identity of Kashmiris on the other side of the border has systematically been eroded. Delivering the Yashwantrao Chavan Memorial Lecture here on Wednesday, the Army chief said, "Every time something happens on our side (J&K), we must always address it to say that it is also going to have a radical effect on another side (PoK). The issue is, on the other side, the complete demography has changed." "Pakistan has very cleverly changed the complete demography of so-called Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan. So, one is not very sure as to who is an actual Kashmiri, whom we are addressing these issues to," he said. General Rawat further said, "People from Gilgit-Baltistan are also now being taken over gradually. So, to say that there is an identity between our side of Kashmiri and the other side, then the identity thing has gradually been eroded very cleverly by Pakistanis. That is an issue we have to look at." The Army Chief said that the tolerance levels of the people in Kashmir have "reduced and perceived alienation" as the youth in the region is being "indoctrinated to act irrationally." "In recent times, the tolerance levels of the public in Kashmir have reduced and perceived alienation is indicative of a definitive aspirational deficit amongst the local youth. The Kashmiri youth is being indoctrinated to act irrationally. The proliferation of social media has further compounded the challenge and contributes towards the spread of an anti-establishment narrative," he said. The Army chief said, "Perceptions in Jammu and Kashmir is based on whose story you are listening to. Thus, making peace narrative is very different. These narratives are built around the constructs of radicalisation, alienation, agitation, religious fundamentalism and anti-nationalism on one hand and the perception of a Kashmiri common man on the other." Talking about Jammu and Kashmir, the Army chief said, "Things will be brought under control and are being brought under control, but sustained pressure needs to be maintained." Rawat also expressed concern over allowing funeral processions of terrorists. He said that those who are glorifying terrorists as brave hearts are "possibly trying encouraging more people to join the terrorist ranks." The Army Chief's comments come after two Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) jawans sustained injuries on Wednesday in a stone-pelting incident in Kashmir's Budgam district. A group of people resorted to stone pelting during an ongoing encounter between the security forces and the terrorists in Chathergram village. Read the full article

Prime Minister Narendra Modi pays last respects to former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee at the BJP Headquarters.The mortal remains of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee were taken to the BJP headquarters from his residence on the Krishna Menon Marg in Delhi with people in large numbers joining the procession. Amid chants of ‘Atal Bihari Amar Rahe��, a decorated gun carriage carrying the mortal remains of Vajpayee, who passed away last evening, left for the BJP headquarters on Deen Dayal Updadhyay Marg around 10 am, an hour behind schedule.  A huge crowd has gathered outside the BJP headquarters where the top party leadership including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, party chief Amit Shah and several union ministers will pay their last respects. The air was solemn as Vajpayee’s body, draped in the tricolour, was placed on a platform draped in white flowers. Hundreds of people filed past the body in silence, with a large portrait of a smiling Vajpayee in the backdrop. Vajpayee, 93, passed away at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi last evening after a prolonged illness. He was accorded a state funeral. The funeral procession will leave the BJP headquarters at 1 pm and the last rites will be performed at the Rashtriya Smriti Sthal at 4 pm. Seen as a moderate face of BJP, Vajpayee’s first became prime minister in 1996, leading a shaky coalition whose members were suspicious of the BJP’s right-wing politics. It lasted for 13 days and collapsed after losing a vote of no-confidence. His second stint as prime minister was in 1998 when the National Democratic Alliance again came to power but that lasted for just 13 months. Finally, the NDA with Vajpayee as PM returned to power in 1999 and was voted out in 2004. Earlier this morning, Congress President Rahul Gandhi, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, Army Chief Bipin Rawat, Chief of Naval Staff Admiral Sunil Lanba and RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat paid homage to the former prime minister at his official residence.
