Article 370 is gone forever, and no one can bring it back: BJP J&K | | Jammu, November 06 (Scoop News)-Advocate Ishant Gupta, State IT Head BJP Jammu & Kashmir, strongly criticized the bill introduced by the NC-Congress alliance in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly, which aims to restore Article 370. He called this move “unconstitutional and misleading,” emphasizing that it is a misguided attempt to mislead people and push the region backward. “Article 370 is gone, and no one can bring it back,” Gupta stated. “Jammu and Kashmir are fully integrated into Bharat now. We won’t go back to the days of two flags and two constitutions. Our future lies in unity and equality with the rest of Bharat, not in reviving old divisions.”
Gupta explained that the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019 brought major benefits to the region, including opportunities for investment, growth, and development. With central laws now applied to Jammu and Kashmir, governance has become more transparent and accountable. Economic opportunities have increased as companies and investors are now open to engaging in the region, benefiting the local economy and creating jobs. Social progress has been significant as well, Gupta added.
Before Article 370 was abrogated, many communities, such as Dalits, refugees, and women, faced discrimination and lacked rights. Today, these groups enjoy equal rights, just as citizens do in the rest of Bharat. Women in Jammu and Kashmir now have inheritance rights even if they marry outside the region—a crucial step towards gender equality. “Trying to bring back Article 370 is not only illegal but shows NC-Congress’s lack of commitment to real progress for Jammu and Kashmir,” Gupta said. “Instead of focusing on development, jobs, and people’s well-being, they are wasting time on outdated issues. This bill is just a tool to serve their political interests, not the people.”
Gupta also highlighted the improved security situation in Jammu and Kashmir, which has led to a boost in tourism, benefiting local businesses and creating more jobs for young people. According to Gupta, the abrogation of Article 370 has helped bring stability, and any attempt to restore it would only disrupt the peace and unity that have taken root under Prime Minister Modi’s government.
“BJP is committed to a strong, peaceful, and prosperous Jammu and Kashmir. Article 370 is a closed chapter, and we stand by that,” Gupta said, urging leaders to focus on a brighter future for the people instead of reviving divisive issues. ... |
