Description
Summary:The parliament of India has laid the policy framework in terms of retrieving its lost territory in Jammu and Kashmir. Time has come for India to take all necessary steps to reverse its adversarial situation and free itself of the strategic bottleneck, it has been facing due to the continued illegal occupation of PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan by Pakistan. This will enhance the prestige and stature of India among the neighboring countries of Central Asia and Afghanistan which are eagerly looking forward to see India playing a balancing role vis-ě-vis China in the region. It will once for all resolve the vexed Kashmir problem, which has been sapping the energy, resources, morale and profile of Indian nation state both within and outside the country. By doing so, India will secure its appropriate international position proportionate to its size, population, geopolitical position, economy and status of a rising power.
