Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK or POK) is the name given by India to a portion of Jammu and Kashmir controlled by Pakistan and People's Republic of China. India claims it is being illegally occupied by Pakistan. Pakistan divided this area into three parts: #The Islamic Republic of Azad Kashmir, #The Northern Areas, Pakistan, which are administered as a de facto 'Union Territory' and as an integral part of Pakistan, and #A small part of Northern Areas that was ceded to China by Pakistan in 1963 with the proviso that the settlement was subject to the final solution of the Kashmir dispute.

I don't know if there must be a separate page for this as it is essentially a kinda multiple redirect to Azad Kashmir and Northern Areas, Pakistan. -- User:Paddu 21:48, 1 Mar 2004 (UTC) == POK == In fact Pakistan occupied Kashmir should be the main banner under which the various parts of Kashmir subdivided by Pakistan need to be discussed. All other parts that have been created by Paksitan out of POK, are strictly to deflect discussion on the status of various parts afforded by it, as these are different. Given that Pakistan DID occupy Kashmir through an invasion, calling POK an Indian name is not NPOV as this flies against the fact of invasion. While the Pakistanis don't have a legal signed documented claim on Kashmir, India does by way of the Instrument of Accession, signed by Kashmir and Lord Mountbatten, a British citizen, on behalf of India. Let the description reflect what it truly is, an occupation, without calling it an Indian term. == More points in the article for NPOV == 1. The article does not mention the reasons for Pakistan dividing the part of Kashmir occupied them. This facet of political action by Pakistan needs to be addressed. Particularly the fact that it tries to delink the Northern Areas from the overall Kashmir discussion. This combined with its gift of Kashmiri land to China so as to gain political and military support. 2. There are several constituent peoples that form part of this division, who are different from the rest of Pakistan. Most areas are completely Shia and Ismaili followers as against the predominant Sunni followers in the rest of Pakistan. Given Pakistan's history of sectarian violence this is a facet that cannot avoid mention, particularly when the Sunnis try and exert their influence increasingly in these Shia areas. 3. Besides, the people of POK have limited freedoms compared to the rest of the people of Pakistan, ( a direct contrast to India ) this too because of the substantial Pakistani military presence here. There is no democracy, and the area as such is practically under army law, a clear human rights situation. 4. This area has been the hotbed of terrorism practiced on India by militants who get trained in Pakistan camps across this area. There is enough evidence on this and as such has been acknowledged by Pakistani authorities in power. This characteristic of the region needs to be captured in a world suffering under terrorist militancy. This particularly being the reason why the Indian army build up in Indian controlled Kashmir is high and when the terrorist militancy is the cause of deaths of numerous civilians, security forces, government establishments and infrastructure. This is the CAUSE to the effect that is felt in India which is captured by the article on Kashmir in Wiki. The CAUSE arising out of Pakistani actions in POK thus needs to be spoken about. This alone will represent the NPOV given the scope of discussions covered by Wiki under the link Kashmir.
