Article 370 belongs to annals of history: Vibodh

BJP warns PDP, NC against disturbing peace with misleading remarks


Jummu, July 06: Responding to recent remarks made by former CM and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah regarding the restoration of Article 370, BJP J&K General Secretary and former MLC, Vibodh Gupta, reiterated that Article 370 was legally abrogated from the parliament and firmly stated that it now belongs to the annals of history.
Speaking at an event organized to pay tribute to the visionary leader, Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, on his birth anniversary at BJP headquarters, Rajouri, Vibodh highlighted that Dr Mukherjee’s vision of a united and prosperous India resonates deeply with the goals and aspirations of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The BJP, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, remains committed to realizing Dr Mukherjee’s dream of a strong and inclusive India.
During the event, Vibodh strongly criticized the National Conference (NC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for consistently spreading misinformation and misleading the people of Jammu and Kashmir. He specifically referred to the recent misleading remarks made by Mehbooba Mufti, where she distorted the announcement of the LG government regarding the provision of 5 marlas of land to landless people. He condemned the act of using landless people as political fodder, deeming it unbecoming and downright low.
In his scathing remarks, Vibodh lambasted these dynastic parties for their historical role in unleashing an era of terrorism, bloodshed, and instability in the Union Territory. He emphasized that the efforts of Prime Minister Narendra Modi have boosted tourism by bringing peace and stability in J&K. Urging NC and PDP to prioritise stability and prosperity in J&K over political gains, Vibodh asked them
to refrain from any attempts to disrupt this hard-earned stability and prosperity through misleading claims and remarks.
Recognizing Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee’s invaluable contributions to the nation, District President Dinesh Sharma highlighted the enduring impact of his ideas and principles. He reiterated, “Dr Mukherjee’s unwavering commitment to the ideals of nationalism, unity, and integrity continue to inspire generations of Indians. He also emphasized the importance of upholding the ideals of national integration, equal rights, and opportunities for all citizens as taught by him.
Speaking on the occasion former District President and Vice President MC Rajouri Bharat Bhushan Vaid highlighted the crucial role of Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee in shaping India’s political landscape and upholding the principles of nationalism, integrity, and good governance. His unwavering commitment to the welfare of the citizens continues to inspire generations, he added. Senior BJP leaders Ranjeet Tara, Atam Gupta and Sanjay Sharma also spoke on the occasion.
