Article 370 was meant to be 'temporary' provision in Constitution: Amit Shah

The Hindu  

The now-scrapped Article 370, which gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir, was meant to be a "temporary" provision since the beginning and the framers of the Constitution had put it there "intelligently", Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on May 15. Referring to Article 370, which the BJP government at the Centre repealed in 2019, the Home Minister said the whole country wanted that the provision of the Constitution should not be in existence. He also highlighted that when the Article was framed, it was mentioned in the index as "Temporary Provision of Article 370". If you read it even today — the old Constitution, it is clearly written as Temporary Provision of Article 370," he said.
