Addressing a public rally in Srinagar’s Bakshi stadium on Thursday, PM Modi hit out at the opposition, including the Congress, claiming that some families were misguiding not only the people of Jammu & Kashmir but the entire nation over the now-abrogated Article 370.
On August 5, 2019, the Centre-led by Prime Minister Modi abrogated the provisions of Article 370 on August 5, 2019 and bifurcated the erstwhile state into the Union territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.
‘The Congress and its allies misled the people of Jammu and Kashmir and the country for decades in the name of Article 370. The people of Jammu and Kashmir are now aware of the truth about whether Jammu and Kashmir benefited from Article 370. The talent of Jammu and Kashmir is gets its due respect today as there is no Article 370 now,” Modi said.
In the latest, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday inaugurated initiatives worth nearly Rs 5,000 crore for boosting the agri-economy in Jammu and Kashmir during his maiden visit to the Valley since the abrogation of Article 370 by his government.
PM Modi attended the “Viksit Bharat Viksit Jammu Kashmir” program at Srinagar’s Bakshi Stadium where he announced multiple projects related to agriculture and tourism.
He dedicated to the nation about Rs 5000 crore worth of ‘The Holistic Agriculture Development Programme’ (HADP)- to boost agri-economy in Jammu and Kashmir.
On Thursday morning, the Prime Minister flew into Srinagar and then to Badamibagh Cantonment, the headquarters of the Army’s 15, where he laid a wreath at the War Memorial and paid his tributes to fallen soldiers. He was then driven to Srinagar’s Bakshi Stadium for the rally.
