‘Bloodshed will end now’: HM Amit Shah on how Article 370 hurt J&K

Union Home Minister Amit Shah justified the decision to end Jammu and Kashmir's special status and the proposal to bifurcate it into two Union Territories in the Rajya Sabha. He claimed that bloodshed in the state would end once Article 370 was revoked. Shah also alleged that the Article had hindered democracy in the state. The Upper House also passed a bill to reorganise the state into two Union Territories - Jammu-Kashmir and Ladakh. The Lok Sabha will take up the bill on Tuesday.
