Amaravati: The YSRCP has supported the removal of Article 370, which was introduced by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Rajya Sabha, on Monday.
Speaking on the occasion, MP V Vijayasai Reddy said its a great privilege and honor to talk about the Bill which has been pinching this country for the last many years and said hats off to the Home Minister and Prime Minister for their vision.
He commented that this courageous, bold, and daring move of the Home Minister would be remembered in the Indian Parliament history forever and solve the problem of the Kashmir. He also said our leader YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and our party wholeheartedly support the move of the Home Minister and Prime Minister.
In the context, MP has raised few questions to the main opposition Congress party in the House. Where he said that had Nehru not been recalled the Indian army which has gone 25kms inside Pakistan and overpowered it, then we would not have been discussing this issue. Secondly, had Nehru entrusted the job to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who was the icon of the unification of India.
MP Vijaysai Reddy slammed Congress that it should have dispensed the provision in the Constitution which is temporary. But they have not done it.
In addition, he brought few points to the notice of the House that as two swords can't be incorporated in one shell how can
we have two entities within the Union of India? How can this country have two Constitution? How can a state have two separate flags?
He continues, How can a Pakistani become a citizen of India by simply marring a Kashmiri girl? How can a country has two Prime Ministers and a separate Governor, and we have this in J&K.
How can Kashmiri girl becomes untouchable and losses all her rights if she marries someone from other parts of India and how can a boy retain the rights and privileges even if he marries anyone from other parts of the country. MP questioned is it not gender discrimination?
He said the people of this country have been fighting since 1947 to realize their dream of looking India as one entity, one nation and today it is achieved by our Home Minister Amit Shah.
YSRCP MP expressed happiness that the Home Minister is fulfilling the task that has leftover by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. He applauded the government's object to achieve Sabka Sath Sabka Vikas.
In the concluding, MP said that this move would strengthen the sovereignty of the country and remove the discrimination between the citizens. He also expressed confidence that this move will bring peace and development in J&K and congratulated Home Minister and Prime Minister for taking this bold and courageous step of revoking Article 370.
