Can't say when Pakistani Kashmir will be wrested back: Patra

BJP national Spokesperson Sambit Patra on Saturday said the Modi government was a strong government, but he could not specify a date by which India would wrest back Pakistan-administered Kashmir.

"This is not a helpless government; this is a strong government. I can say that this government has the gumption. I cannot tell the date... no one will tell you the date. It is a part of the strategy," Patra said in response to a query during an interactive session here, organised on the occasion of completion of three years of the Narendra Modi government.

"Today, the people of this country firmly believe this is the right time for the government to take tough measures -- because this is the government which has the right man as the Prime Minister, who has a vision for India and who knows how to tackle external affairs," he said.
