Jammu and Kashmir Minister Pledges to Restore Article 370 and Separate Flag Amid BJP Opposition
Newly inducted Jammu and Kashmir minister Mir Saifullah of the National Conference (NC) pledged to restore the region's pre-1953 status, including Article 370 and a separate flag, which were revoked on August 5, 2019. Speaking at a rally in Kupwara, he called the revocation an injustice and urged all parties to unite for restoration. The BJP opposed these claims, stating Article 370 is history and criticized the NC government for unmet public expectations. The NC emphasized its unique role in reclaiming these rights.
