"Momentous decision", S M Krishna on revoking Article 370

Former External Affairs Minister S M Krishna on Monday termed as a "momentous decision" the Central government revoking Article 370 and said it ends a huge ambiguity about Kashmir. "This step ensures the completion of the integration of India started by Sardar Patel," the BJP leader said.

Krishna, a former Karnataka Chief Minister, also said the nation congratulates Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. Meeting a long-held promise of the BJP, Union Home Minister Amit Shah moved a resolution in the Rajya Sabha that Article 370, which allowed Jammu and Kashmir to have its own Constitution, will no longer be applicable..
