Singh said Farooq Abdullah, Omar Abdullah, Mehbooba Mufti should change their mindset must contribute to bringing normalcy. Then, God willing, they will be released.
Singh said that they are getting reports that unrest is increasing among the people of PoK, which is occupied territory and has never been a part of that country. “Pakistan’s attitude towards the people of PoK is step-motherly. They are fed up. We can’t rule out the possibility of people in PoK rising and demanding that they can’t stay with Pakistan and want to be with India,’’ he said, adding this possibility exists as there is increasing dissatisfaction. The unrest is spreading rapidly (in PoK), he maintained.
