Pullela Gopichand (PIc via Twitter)
Former Badminton player and Chief National Coach Pullela Gopichand praised the Central government’s efforts to smoothly carry out the bifurcation of J&K into two union territories following the abrogation of Article 370.
A video of Gopichand’s speech was shared by PIB:
In the video, Gopichand recounted the confusion prevalent during the bifurcation of Andhra and Telangana leading to uncertainty among common people including his own family members.
“For the minuscule population who think that things were not as per procedure in this bifurcation (J&K), they need to go back and see what happened when Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated”, said Gopichand.
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.
