158 transformers damaged in Kashmir in 4 days as consumers used banned heating devices in winters
The Kashmir Power Distribution Corporation Limited (KPDCL) on Friday raised an alarm as 158 transformers were damaged in the past four days across the Kashmir valley due to the use of banned heating equipment.
Union Minister Hansraj Ahir on Thursday said no one could stop India if it wanted to wrest PoK from Pakistan, stressing that the territory was a part of India.
The minister of state for home said Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir was under Islamabad because of the “mistakes” of previous governments.
“I say Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir is a part of India and due to the mistakes of the previous governments it has been with Pakistan. If we try to get PoK back, no one can stop us because it is our right,” he said on the sidelines of a function here.

The minister said India would make efforts to get the territory back from Pakistan.
The comments came a day after National Conference chief Farooq Abdullah said Pakistan would not allow India to take that part of Jammu and Kashmir which was under its occupation.
The former state chief minister had raked up a controversy last week when he said PoK belonged to Pakistan.
