Repeal of Article 370 points to a political realignment

Live Mint  

The Bharatiya Janata Party’s success in revoking Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir, signals a political realignment, as this is the latest in a string of key bills for which the ruling BJP-led National Democratic Alliance has got parliamentary sanction. The BJP leadership has carried out its core agenda by revoking Article 370 just two months after returning to power with a huge majority in the Lok Sabha, with the remaining two controversial issues—of an uniform civil code and the construction of a Ram temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya—in the works. However, the Bahujan Samaj Party, the Aam Aadmi Party, the YSR Congress Party, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi, and the Biju Janata Dal supported the government on the issue. The day spelt trouble for the Congress in the Upper House, especially after its chief whip, Bhubaneswar Kalita, resigned over the party’s opposition to Article 370.
