Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah
Today was the first day of the assembly session in Jammu and Kashmir. The president was elected today. On the first day of the session, PDP MLA Waheed ur Rehman Parra moved a resolution against the abrogation of Article 370. BJP MLAs opposed this proposal. After this, there was a great commotion in the house. Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said the proposal against Article 370 is of no importance.
CM Abdullah said that if there was any reason behind this, he would have discussed it with us first. We knew that a member was making preparations for this. The reality is that the people of Jammu and Kashmir do not accept the decision taken on August 5, 2019. If they had accepted this, today’s results would have been different. No member will decide how the House will consider this.

Article 370 was removed from Jammu and Kashmir in 2019
On August 5, 2019, the central government repealed almost all the provisions of Article 370, which granted special privileges to the people of the state of Jammu and Kashmir. With the removal of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir, the special status and statehood of Jammu and Kashmir also ended. With this, Jammu and Kashmir was divided into two union territories.
