After the landmark decision of the BJP government to abolish Article 370 of the Constitution, PM Narendra Modi addressed the country on Thursday (August 8). Blaming Article 370, Modi said that the special status to Jammu and Kashmir was for slowing down the pace of development in the region. He also urged the people of the state to show their capability to the world. Everyone lauded Modi’s speech including our Bollywood celebs.
Anupam Kher tweeted, “He certainly is the most inspirational political leader in the world.”

Since I was in school the debate on #Artical370 has been raging. While Kashmir burnt. Innocent lives lost. How did Article370 help? Let’s now move forward as one people. One nation. With hope. Let people of #Kashmir share equally in the opportunity prosperity and growth of India.
