| ‘Dr Ambedkar declined to draft Art 370’ | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 22: Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar on Thursday said the architect of the Indian constitution Dr. B R Ambedkar had declined to draft Article 370 as he had a great vision.
“Architect of our constitution was against incorporating Article 370 in the constitution”, he said.
The Vice-President said that after the abrogation of Article 370, over 200 state laws have been repealed and 100 laws have been modified.
He further said that the abrogation of articles 370 and 35-A was the real tribute to the late Dr. Shyama Prashad Mookerjee who sacrificed his life for the total
integration of Jammu and Kashmir with the Indian Union.
“Dream of Dr. Shyama Prashad Mookerjee of Ek Vidhan, Ek Pradhan, and Ek Nishan was fulfilled with the abrogation of articles 370, and 35-A”, the Vice-President said while addressing the special convocation of the University of Jammu on Thursday.
“Personally, for the last 20 years, I had been advocating abrogation of Articles 35A and 370. These were temporary provisions in our Constitution but lasted for 70 years. We are happy it’s not there now”, he observed.
Vice President said that Article 370 was temporary and still lasted for 70 long years. “We are happy today, it’s not there in J&K,” he said
The VP said that post abrogation of Article 370, J&K has witnessed remarkable growth.
The Vice President said that Jammu & Kashmir is charting a new path of remarkable growth and development post-abrogation of Articles 35-A and 370. The region’s integration into the national mainstream has paved the way for investments, development, and improved governance, he maintained.
He noted that the region, unlike before, now has the prevalence of harmonious atmosphere and called it the greatest homage to the life and mission of Dr Shyama Prasad Mookerjee who laid down his life for building a strong and united India. |
