Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK or POK) is the name given by India to a portion of Jammu and Kashmir controlled by Pakistan and China. India claims it is being illegally occupied by Pakistan.
Pakistan divided this area into three parts:
- The Islamic Republic of Azad Jammu & Kashmir,
- The Northern Areas, 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.cs:Pakistan Occupied Kashmir
