Should India take military action to reclaim Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK)?

The debate over Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) has intensified after the Pahalgam attack, with many in India urging stronger steps to reclaim the territory. Historically a part of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir, PoK has remained under Pakistan’s control since 1947. While India asserts it as an integral part of its territory, the idea of launching a military operation to reclaim it stirs mixed emotions.
 
Supporters argue that India has every right to restore its sovereignty, especially considering the strategic location and the alleged rise of anti-India activities in the region. However, critics caution against the consequences of a full-scale conflict between two nuclear-armed nations. They advocate for diplomatic channels and international pressure. What do you think—should India go all in, or take a cautious approach? Participate in this crucial poll and let your voice be heard in shaping the nation’s stance on PoK.
