Article 370 Scrapped: Ekta Kapoor, Iqbal Khan, Mohit Raina & Other TV Actors React

The government revoked the Article 370 that grants special status to Jammu and Kashmir. TV celebrities are hailing the move.

In a historic move today, the BJP-led Government scrapped Article 370, which gives the state of Jammu & Kashmir a host of special rights; while J&K will be a Union Territory with a legislature, Ladakh will be a Union Territory without legislature. This move has been welcomed by television celebrities. Read on to what the actors have to say!

Kashmir-born actor Iqbal Khan told TOI, "I don't know whether it's a good move or a bad move so soon. All I want to say is bringing peace to the land is more important."

"I hope and pray that peace should be the primary motive. It is very easy to say ‘Kashmir hamara hai', but ‘Kashmiri bhi toh hamare hai'? I just hope this land becomes a home for them."

Mohit Raina said, "Today is a historical day in the Indian constitution. This was long pending, the common man in the valley has been deprived of all his basic rights i.e education and employment. This movement will only get Kashmir in the forefront for all the right reasons, the investors will create numerous job opportunities for the common man which will in turn boost economy of the state and the youth will not fall prey to people with malicious intentions. This will indirectly reduce violence in valley. After the sacrifice of lakhs of Indian soldiers and innocent people for the last 30 years today, thanks to our honourable Prime Minister, we have witnessed this historic day. Jai Hind."
