Addressing a public rally in Sikkim on Sunday, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said that the ruling NDA government will find a permanent solution to the Kashmir issue.

“Despite our several efforts to build friendship with them, Pakistan did not understand our initiative. Today also, they try to destabilise India by fomenting trouble in Kashmir,” said Singh.

“But I want to tell all of you that our government will find a permanent solution to the Kashmir issue,” he said, without elaborating.

The home minister’s statement assumes significance as it comes at a time the Kashmir valley has been witnessing widespread unrest since April 9 when the bypoll to the Srinagar Lok Sabha seat was held.

Maintaining that Kashmir is an integral part of India, Singh said: “We know the truth that Kashmir, Kashmiris and Kashmiriyat are ours.” (Hum iss sachchai ko jaante hain ki Kashmir bhi humara hai, Kashmiri bhi humare hain aur Kashmiriyat bhi humari hai). 

Referring to the 2014 swearing-in ceremony of the Modi government, the home minister said leaders of all neighbouring countries, including Pakistan, were invited to show that the new government wanted to have friendly relations with all countries.

However, he said, there had been no change in Pakistan’s attitude towards India and it wanted to destabilise India.

“We hope that Pakistan will change. If it does not change, we have to change them. After globalisation, one country can’t destabilise another country as the international community will not forget it,” he said.

In the past, there have been always been differences between India and China regarding the International Border and Line of Actual Control.

The Home Minister acknowledged the same and said that there are perception based differences between India and China on border issues and both the countries are engaged in bilateral talks to further relations.

The home minister added, “Since the Indo-China border is undemarcated, we have to be very vigilant while guarding the borders. It is the inhospitable conditions near the border which make patrolling extremely difficult but in spite of these odds, our forces are doing a great job.”
