Senior Fellow, Manohar Parrikar IDSA. Dr. Ashok Behuria’s commentary on India’s stand on Gilgit-Baltistan, titled ‘India Asserts PAK Top Court Has No Locus Standi On Gilgit-Baltistan’ has been published by the All India Radio (AIR) World Service, an External Services Division of AIR, on May 08, 2020.
The popular demands from Gilgit-Baltistan is something that Pakistan has all along ignored. People there need education, jobs, health services and a better life, like their brethren in the Indian UT of Jammu & Kashmir. India needs to stay alert and evolve ways to thwart Pakistani machinations in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK), writes Dr. Behuria.
