Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma made a big claim today - that Pakistan-occupied Kashmir will be "merged with rest of India" if BJP gets more than 400 seats in the Lok Sabha polls.
Addressing an election rally in Jharkhand's Ramgarh, he said the BJP needed to get over 400 seats to implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) across the country.
"PoK will be merged with rest of India if BJP gets over 400 seats in Lok Sabha polls. BJP needs over 400 seats to build the 'Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi' temple and 'Gyanvapi temple', and implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), just like when it crossed the 300-seat mark in 2019, it built the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. It also ensured the abrogation of Article 370 from Jammu & Kashmir, and implemented the CAA," Mr Sarma said.
"Like Assam, infiltrators from Bangladesh are changing the demography of Jharkhand, while the JMM and Congress are indulging in their appeasement," he alleged.
