He said elections will also be held there definitely, but wouldn\u2019t give a timeline.\u201cI think India will not have to do anything. The way the ground situation has changed in Jammu and Kashmir, the way the region is witnessing economic progress and the way peace has returned there, I think demands will emerge from people of PoK that they should merge with India,\u201d he said.<br \/>\n\u201cWe will not have to use force to take PoK as people would say that we must be merged with India. Such demands are now coming,\u201d he said. The defence minister asserted that \u201cPoK was, is, and will remain ours\u201d.<br \/>\nCiting improvement in the ground situation in Jammu and Kashmir, Singh said assembly elections will be held there soon, but did not give a timeline.<br \/>\n\u201cThe way the situation is improving in Jammu and Kashmir, I think a time will come when AFSPA will no longer be required there. It is my view and it is for the Home Ministry to decide on it,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nThe AFSPA empowers security forces to conduct operations and arrest anyone without any prior warrant. It also gives immunity to the forces if they shoot someone dead.<br \/>\nThe defence minister, referring to Pakistan\u2019s proxy war in Jammu and Kashmir, said Islamabad must stop cross border terrorism. \u201cThey are trying to destabilise India and we will not allow it to happen,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nThe ties between India and Pakistan came under severe strain after India\u2019s warplanes pounded a Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist training camp in Balakot in Pakistan in February 2019 in response to the Pulwama terror attack.<br \/>\nThe relations further deteriorated after India on August 5, 2019 announced the withdrawal of special powers of Jammu and Kashmir and the bifurcation of the state into two union territories.<br \/>\nIndia has been maintaining that it desires normal neighbourly relations with Pakistan while insisting that the onus is on Islamabad to create an environment free of terror and hostility for such an engagement.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16319\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16319\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16319\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-05-at-11.44.09-AM-300x183.png\" alt=\"No Need To Capture PoJK By Force;
