Defense Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday urged the residents of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) to consider joining India. Speaking at an election rally in Ramban assembly constituency, Singh emphasized that unlike Pakistan—which treats them as foreigners—India sees them as its own. "Recently, the Additional Solicitor General of Pakistan presented a resolution in a court where PoK residents were described as foreigners. I want to tell them that the government of India believes they are our citizens," he said.
