Jammu, February 20
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said Article 370 was main hurdle in the development of Jammu and Kashmir and the BJP government abrogated it.
Modi said that after the abrogation of Article 370, Jammu and Kashmir is moving towards balanced development.
He said the common people of Jammu and Kashmir got assurance of social justice mentioned in the Constitution for the first time after abrogation of Article 370.
“A remarkable day for Jammu and Kashmir,” he said after launching multiple development projects in J&K.
He said the projects in Jammu and Kashmir would propel a holistic development of the region. “This is first time in Jammu and Kashmir that the government has reached people’s doorstep, this is Modi's guarantee that it will continue,” said the PM.
The government whose priority is welfare of just one family cannot think of welfare of common people, he added.
“I am happy to see Jammu and Kashmir is getting free from dynastic rule….A developed India means a developed Jammu and Kashmir,” said Modi.
