Bhopal, Aug 18 : Senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh on Thursday described Kashmir as “India-occupied Kashmir” while criticising Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s utterances on Pakistan.
“Prime Minister Modi seems more concerned about Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, which is welcome, than he is interested in holding talks with India’s Kashmiris,” Digvijay told reporters here.
“Boosting trust among Kashmiris, whether they belong to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir or India-occupied Kashmir, is possible only through dialogue,” he said.
The Congress General Secretary later corrected himself by saying he only meant that Modi is not worried about “India’s Kashmir — not worried about the valley — but worried about Pak-occupied Kashmir”.
Digvijay’s gaffe invited immediate reactions on social media.
Bollywood actor Praesh Rawal tweeted: “Digvijay Singh ji calls J&K as ‘India occupied Kashmir’. It was his #HappyRakshaBandhan gift to his Pakistani sisters”.—IANS
What dialogue ? Is it not crystal clear that there is a Mutual agreement between Indo-pakistan that there will be Plebiscite on this disputed
State. Why India is concealing the facts now.
War will destroy both country . Will it be wise to get both country destroyed by Nuclear War.
It is no more East Pakistan silly & diabolical war where Mujib helped Indian Plain cloth Army Enter East Pakistan under Cover & surrounded Pakistani Soldiers & were shot from back & easily surrendered. We witnessed it all we were in there.
Do not incite a nuclear war & get destroyed. Honor the commitment of Plebiscite & save killing the freedom Fighters of Kashmir why are receiving Shadaot.
Thanks for admitting that India occupied kashmir
Kashmir valley got name Kashmir from Kashyap Rishi. Kashmir is a holy place for Hindus because lord Shankar resides in Himalayas. Hindus temples like Kedarnath, Amarnath etc are placed in Kashmir only. Hence I say that India has not occupied Kashmir but muslims have occupied.
We consider Digvijay as a converted Hindu & he does not know about Hindus history.
The present tense situation in Kashmir is due to Pakistan sponsored terrorism. Indian muslims should raise voice against it. Unfortunately you like criticizing Indian military & demand Plebiscite. Be a proud Indian & make sure Kashmir remains with India only.
Muslims all over the world attacked many territories & captured land. I must say India including Pakistan, Afghanistan & Bangladesh belongs to Hindus only. As far as, human rights in Kashmir is concerned, I would suggest Kashmiris to allow Kashmiri pandits to get settled in Kashmir & also stop supporting Pak sponsored terrorism. They can live happily with India only.
If Kashmir leaves then all Muslims will leave India. Indian have enough of muslim nuisances. Muslim should have been out of india in 1947. Muslims have proven to be disloyal, untrustworthy, hate India and hate Hindus. I believe that India is going to erupt just like 1984.. anti sikh riots and all over india. Pakistan say Kashmir is unfinished agenda of 1947. But forgets to mention as what happened to muslim in 1947. Two Chief Ministers, Haryana and Maharashtra have already asked muslim to leave. Defense Minster and other ministers have kind of muslim to leave. Lal Singh, a minister in J&K told muslim that Indians will do same to muslim as was done in 1947. Today there is no Gandhi. If Muslim or likes of Owaisi think that they will distribute sweets when Kashmir gets azadi then think 10 times. Just google see what happened in Hydrabad in 1948 during so called police action. Pakistan whish uses tanks, artillery and F16 to kill it’s own muslim, Indians can do. So far, muslim problem is in 4 southern districts, Army can round up these muslim as happened in 1947 and march them to Pakistan.. as these muslim call themselves Pakistanis. Pakistani wants Kashmiri land.. that will never happen. IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME WHEN MODI WILL SAY THOSE MUSLIM WHO FLY PAKISTANI FLAGS IN INDIA OR MUSLIMS WHO DON’T WANT TO LIVE HERE GO TO PAKISTAN.
