A senior RSS leader has advocated giving "temporary" representation to the people of Pakistan- occupied-Kashmir (POK) in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly and Parliament.
"Those who have been dislodged from POK and permanently staying in the mainland should be given temporary representation in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly and Parliament," joint general secretary of RSS Krishna Gopal said at an event here.
He also said there is lack of unanimity in the country on trifurcation of Jammu and Kashmir into Laddakh, Jammu and Kashmir though there is a demand for it.
RSS will intensify its efforts to eradicate the practice of untouchability from the society, Gopal said.
