TIL Desk/National/Gurgaon/ The abrogation of Article 370 provisions is a “decisive battle” waged by the Narendra Modi government to end years of proxy war and terrorism from Pakistan and the step will bring ever-lasting peace in Jammu and Kashmir, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday.
Attending the 35th Raising Day celebrations of the counter-terror force NSG as the chief guest here, Shah said the recent decision to repeal special provisions in J and K will help to “completely eradicate” the Pakistan-sponsored terrorism from the Kashmir Valley.
He
said his government is firm on the policy of “zero tolerance” on
terrorism and the National Security Guard (NSG) is an important instrument to
achieve this goal. “I believe that with the abrogation of Article 370 by
PM Narendra Modi, we have initiated a decisive battle against years of proxy
war and terror acts perpetrated by our neighbour (Pakistan) and this step will
ensure ever-lasting peace in Kashmir and the region,” Shah said at the NSG
garrison in Manesar.
