Prime Minister Modi hailed the Supreme Court’s unanimous verdict on the abrogation of Article 370 as “historic” and constitutionally aligned with Parliament’s 2019 decision. The ruling, viewed as a significant endorsement for PM Modi and the BJP, reinforces the government’s commitment to Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh’s progress.

The judgment, emphasizing Article 370’s temporary nature, validates the formation of Ladakh as a Union Territory. PM Modi, assuring commitment to the region’s development, sees the verdict as a beacon of hope and a promise for a united and stronger India.

The post-abrogation scenario reflects restored rights, the decline of separatism, and amplified cultural vibrancy. The government, led by PM Modi, aims for lasting peace and comprehensive development in J&K and Ladakh, fostering unity and reinforcing the integral ties with Bharat. #NayaJammuKashmir symbolizes the region’s renewed connection with the nation, echoing the commitment to holistic growth, economic incentives, educational infrastructure, and welfare benefits.

Jammu and Kashmir lost its special status in August 2019 under Article 370, a move initiated after the BJP’s electoral success. The court’s decision not only validated the abrogation but also supported the creation of the Union Territory of Ladakh. Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud emphasized that Article 370 was a temporary provision, and the president had the authority to revoke it.

PM Modi, in a social media post, assured the people of Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh of the government’s unwavering commitment to fulfilling their dreams. He stated that the verdict symbolized not just a legal judgment but a beacon of hope and a promise for a brighter future, reinforcing the collective resolve to build a stronger, more united India.

The post-abrogation scenario has witnessed the restoration of rights for the poor and deprived, marking the end of separatism and stone-pelting. The region now resonates with melodious music and cultural tourism, reflecting strengthened bonds of unity and reinforced integrity with Bharat. PM Modi’s leadership aims to establish lasting peace and drive all-around development in J&K and Ladakh.

 

The government’s efforts post-abrogation include boosting the local economy with incentives, developing state-of-the-art educational infrastructure, and empowering the poor with welfare benefits. The hashtag NayaJammuKashmir symbolizes the renewed connection of the region with the nation, signifying a commitment to holistic growth and prosperity.

All eyes were fixed on the apex court, awaiting its verdict on the constitutionality of the government’s decision to abrogate Article 370 on 5th August 2019. The ruling marked a critical test for the Supreme Court, scrutinizing the legality of a decision that altered the status quo of Jammu and Kashmir. The unanimous validation of the abrogation by the Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud and the bench, with a clear assertion on the temporary nature of Article 370, put to rest any lingering constitutional uncertainties. This landmark decision not only affirmed the government’s constitutional authority but also set the stage for a new era in the region’s governance and integration.

The Supreme Court verdict on Article 370 holds particular significance for the BJP, coinciding with the anticipation of the inauguration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya just a month away. This ruling is viewed as a profound ideological triumph and a moment of relief for the party. The historical context traces back to 1953, when Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, a key figure in the Jan Sangh, led an agitation against Article 370, denouncing it as a living symbol of separatism. Mukherjee’s enduring legacy includes the slogan “ek vidhan, ek nishan, ek pradhan” (one Constitution, one flag, and one Prime Minister).

Even after his death in detention in Jammu, the issues of Article 370, the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, and the implementation of a Uniform Civil Code remain integral to the BJP’s core agenda.

Commending the government led by Prime Minister Modi, BJP President Jagat Prakash Nadda expressed the party’s approval of the Honorable Supreme Court’s decision on Article 370. Nadda highlighted the affirmation by the Constitutional Bench, stating that it upheld the removal of Section 370 and 35A, acknowledging both the procedure and the intended purpose behind this significant constitutional change.

The Supreme Court’s recent decision affirming the abolition of Article 370 marks a significant milestone in the transformation of Jammu and Kashmir. Emphasizing the positive outcomes post-abrogation, the judgment highlights the restoration of rights for the marginalized, the cessation of separatist tendencies, and a decline in incidents of stone-pelting. The region now resonates with the vibrancy of music and cultural tourism, fostering a renewed sense of unity. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visionary leadership has been instrumental in steering the region towards lasting peace and comprehensive development. The commitment to bolster the local economy, enhance educational infrastructure, and uplift the disadvantaged underscores the government’s dedication to holistic progress.

The unanimous welcome of the Supreme Court’s verdict echoes the broad approval of the decision to abolish Article 370. PM Modi’s foresighted move on August 5, 2019, paved the way for a return to peace and normalcy in Jammu and Kashmir. The subsequent focus on growth and development has brought about a transformative shift in the lives of the residents, particularly evident in the flourishing tourism and agriculture sectors, contributing to elevated income levels.

Today’s Supreme Court ruling further cements the constitutionality of the decision to abrogate Article 370. The post-abrogation era has witnessed the restoration of rights for the underprivileged, marking the end of separatist challenges and violent confrontations. The region now thrives with musical melodies and cultural tourism, symbolizing a strengthened sense of unity and reaffirming Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh as integral parts of the nation.

The resonance of belief in the historic and constitutional correctness of Prime Minister Modi’s decision on August 5 extends far beyond national borders, capturing the attention and approval of people both within the country and abroad. Today’s Supreme Court verdict solidifies the perception that the actions taken on that momentous day were not only transformative but also aligned with constitutional principles. The widespread acknowledgment and support from individuals across diverse regions underscore the global recognition of the significance and legitimacy of the decisions made by the Modi government concerning Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh.

PM Narendra Modi’s leadership stands as a paradigm for addressing longstanding issues deemed insurmountable by others. With a visionary approach, he tackled a pending matter persisting for 75 years, demonstrating a distinctive ability to navigate challenges. The resolution of this issue, previously considered elusive, attests to PM Modi’s adeptness in adopting effective strategies. His methodical and determined approach has proven instrumental in achieving what seemed unattainable, reinforcing the perception that PM Modi is not merely a leader but an embodiment of innovative solutions to seemingly intractable problems.
