"Will consider revoking Article 370 in J&K" says Digvijaya Singh
In a clubhouse chat Digvijaya Singh said, "Will reconsider the decision of abrogating Article 370 in J&K".
Digvijaya Singh has allegedly said that if Congress come to power at the Centre, they will reconsider the decision of abrogating Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir.
The chat was released on Twitter by BJP leader Amit Malviya. "In a Club House chat, Rahul Gandhi’s top aide Digvijaya Singh tells a Pakistani journalist that if Congress comes to power they will reconsider the decision of abrogating Article 370. Really?," he tweeted.
"When they revoked Article 370 then humanity was missing as Kashmiriyat is something which is basically fundamentals of secularism because in a Muslim-majority state there was a Hindu king and both worked together. In fact, the reservation in Kashmir was given to Kashmiri pandits in government services," said Digvijay Singh
BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra accused Digvijaya Singh of "spewing venom against India outside".
"Today an important topic going on in TV channels is 'Clubhouse'. We all have seen through TV channels how the veteran leader of the clubhouse Digvijaya Singh is spewing venom against India outside and how he is agreeing with Pakistan's demands. This is the same Digvijaya Singh, who had told the Pulwama attack just an accident, he had called the 26/11 attack a conspiracy of RSS and also tried to give clean chit to Pakistan at that time," said Sambit Patra.
"In the Clubhouse, a Pakistani journalist asks this question that after the removal of Narendra Modi, what will be the Kashmir policy. Digvijaya ji thanks that journalist on such a question and says that if Modi ji is removed from power and Congress government comes then he will re-establish Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir", Patra said
Article 370 of the Constitution of India has been revoked at the Centre on August 6, 2019 by the government led by PM Modi. Jammu and Kashmir was bifurcated into two Union Territories, namely UT of J&K and UT of Ladakh. The Article 370 of the Constitution of India was a 'temporary provision' imposed on 17 October 1949 in Jammu and Kashmir. It gave special powers to the state of Jammu and Kashmir to have a separate constitution.
