POK is ours, says India & opens a new front

The Pathankot airbase terror attack has taken a dramatic turn with India opening a new front, saying the entire Pakistan-occupied Kashmir really and truly belongs to it. At the same time, India has expressed concern over the exploitation of natural resources in Gilgit and Baltistan and their misuse by Pakistan. The External Affairs Ministry has made it clear that although Pakistan might claim temporary right with the use of force in 1947, India had the inalienable rights over so-called POK. There is no hesitation in making the declaration by India. Pak Occupied Kashmir was an integral part of India, and New Delhi would not forgo the right, the ministry reiterated. India has welcomed the constitution of the Joint Investigation Team by Islamabad to go into the Pathankot airbase attack. India has assured the Nawaz Sharif government of all support to its measures. India would also share the details it had on the attack with Pakistan. Why and when did India get the idea to widen the Pathankot issue? The lead was given by White House spokesman who said India could jolly well attack madrasas maintained by the various terror groups in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. That was when the otherwise thoughtless Indian establishment appeared to have discovered the idea. The point is having got the leads from the US, its spokesmen and President Barack Obama himself, would India go all out to finish off Pathankot terror perpetrators once and for all? You must have the nerve to do it. When the whole of West Asia is in turmoil and expected to be burning for a long time to come, india cannot adopt an ostrich-like stance. Look around you find attack for attack, force against force. That is the rule of the world. Dump the talk of peace in the Arabian Sea. If you talk of eternal peace, even rats like Maulana Masood Azhar will launch Pathankot-type attacks at will.
