Prime Minister Modi responds to the Supreme Court decision on the abrogation of Article 370, calling it a “source of optimism.”

The recent Supreme Court ruling on the annulment of Article 370 is a momentous decision that aligns with the constitutional validity of the Parliament’s choice on August 5, 2019. Prime Minister Modi described it as a significant affirmation of hope, progress, and unity for the people of Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh. The Court, displaying profound wisdom, has reinforced the fundamental principle of unity that holds great importance for all Indians.
Modi assured the resilient residents of Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh that the government remains steadfast in its commitment to realizing their aspirations. The goal is to ensure that progress not only reaches them but also extends its benefits to the most vulnerable and marginalized sections of society impacted by Article 370. He emphasized that the verdict goes beyond a legal judgment, serving as a symbol of hope, a promise for a brighter future, and a testament to the collective determination to build a stronger, more united India.
