When Army commander in Kashmir, Lt Gen Satish Dua was asked about Chinese presence in POK he said, “Everyone knows they are constructing roads there and as far as we are concerned we have planned a network of road construction in the area, whether it is Kashmir or Kargil and its an on-going process.”
But the Chinese in POK are going beyond roads.
The Chinese Ministry of Water and Power and the State Grid Corporation of China are working closely with Pakistan to build an interconnecting electrical grid between the two countries to enable them to utilize each other’s energy potential.
Pakistan’s Water and Power Secretary Muhammad Younus Dagha confirmed this at the Global Energy Interconnection Conference in Beijing where more than 700 delegates were present.
Trade between Pakistan and China is likely to increase by 24 percent after completion of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project.
This comes after the recent developments in the UN where China stood against India’s interest in Jaish-e-Mohammad Chief Maulana Masood Azhar who India belives to be the perpetrator of the terror attack on Pathankot Airbase.
