Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister (CM) Shivraj Singh Chauhan on Monday (5 August) hailed the abolition of Article 370 in the state of Jammu and Kashmir which gave the state special powers and status against the other states, reports The Hindu.
He also added in a tweet, "The dream of ‘ek desh mein do vidhan, do pradhan aur do nishan nahi chalenge (two legislations, two heads and two emblems in one country are not acceptable)’ has been fulfilled."
Chauhan, the BJP’s tallest leader in Madhya Pradesh had lost out to the Congress in a tightly drawn fight in last year’s state elections.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
