Our PM ki sui abhi tak congress par hi atki hui hai. How pathetic !! This is what we have to hear again for next 5 yrs from this person. Our bad luck and misfortune !! Problems of the country will not be tackled.
Mr Modi forgets that prior to Oct 1947, Sardar Patel had sent messages to Pak thru MOuntbatten that India would not claim Kashmir if Pak withdraws claims on Hyderabad.
He only hardened his stand after the invasions of late Oct 1947 by Pakistan.
Also, by end 1948, both armies had come to a standstill, and it needed the Indian Army to recoup losses for 4-6 months before even thinking of recapturing POK areas , which were heavily defended. There was no guarantee of gaining POK areas in a few months time , given the relatively equal strengths of both sides. The stale mate on the LOC has been documented by Army historians. So, whether Patel or Nehru was PM, it would not have made much of a difference.

If he kept away for writing some inane article, then what a waste of precious time and taxpayers’ money.
