Abrogation of Article 370 hurriedly taken decision, aimed at diverting attention: Fransico Sardinha

By Anil Mishra
Panaji, Sep 12 (UNI) Former Goa Chief Minister and Member of Parliament Francisco Sardinha has alleged that abrogation of Article 370, which accorded special status to Jammu and Kashmir, was a hurriedly taken decision and aimed at diverting attention of the people from failure of Narendra Modi Government.
''The point is that they are total failure and that is the reason that they abrogated Article 370. Most of the people liked (the decision) but they (government) has no right (to abrogate the Article) without asking the people. They are also Indians, they also had their government. What they did was they extended the President's Rule in order to abrogate the Article. They made Laddakh a union territory. What is the reason? They say they want to make progress. I am asking, from 2017 to 2019 there was President's Rule, who stopped them from doing whatever development they wanted to do in the two regions. Who stopped them? This is nothing but hoodwinking the public. They brought this issue to divert attention from other issues,'' Mr Sardinha, who represents South Goa Lok Sabha constituency, told UNI in an interview.
