S Jaishankar said people assumed Article 370 could not be changed as the politics of the day had driven it deeply into the public consciousness.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Wednesday said that every political party in the country is "committed to ensuring that PoK (apkistan-Occupied Kashmir), which is a part of India, returns to India," and that "the PoK issue has come to the front of people's thinking" after revocation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, which was considered a difficult decision.
Interacting with students at the Gargi College, the minister said people assumed Article 370 could not be changed as the politics of the day had driven it deeply into the public consciousness.
Article 370, which gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir, was scrapped by the BJP-led government in August 2019.
