Article 370 back in focus, courtesy Jitendra Singh

The debate over Article 370 is back in focus with Minister of State (MoS), PMO, Jitendra Singh stating that the process of abrogating it has already begun and they are discussing the issue with several stakeholders in the state.

The Article 370 of the Constitution grants special autonomous status to Jammu and Kashmir. BJP has been pushing for scrapping of Article 370 but in its election manifesto the party talked about discussing the issue of abrogation with all stakeholders.

Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said Article 370 was the “ONLY Constitutional link” between the state and the rest of the country. Omar said, “Mark my words and save this tweet – long after Modi Govt is a distant memory either J&K won’t be part of India or Art 370 will still exist.”..
