Abdullah himself said in 2024 that expecting the restoration of Article 370 from those who abrogated it is “foolishness” and “deceiving the public”.
In fact, his government even omitted any mention of Article 370 in the Lieutenant Governor’s address to the J&K Assembly in January.
The Valley leaders are stuck on the demand for statehood and keep returning to the restoration of Article 370.
Article 370 was a temporary provision, but the Valley leaders enjoyed it for 70 years.
The Valley leaders can serve their people better by thinking about the possibilities and opportunities that the Indian Constitution offers for the overall development of the region.
