The abrogation of Article 370 was a bold decision taken by the Centre under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah in 2019, said Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday.
Speaking in Nagpur where he was attending the ongoing winter session of the state legislative assembly, Fadnavis said, “Today, the Supreme Court has said the President has all the rights to revoke Article 370 as this was a temporary provision. This not only vindicated the stand of the Centre but is also a huge victory for India and Indians.”

His comments came shortly after an SC verdict upheld the revocation of Article 370.
“Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India. There was no question of compromising the Indian territory. On the contrary the BJP government was committed to safeguarding the interests and aspirations of the people who have always wanted Article 370 to be scrapped. In any case it was a temporary provision,” Fadnavis said.
“We thank the Honourable Supreme Court and Honourable PM Narendra Modi ji, our leader Honourable Amit Shah ji for such a bold and much needed step. This is a moment for people of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh to look forward to an even brighter life ahead in the naya Jammu and Kashmir.”
