Ahmedabad, September 30: Home Minister Amit Shah said on Monday that stripping Jammu and Kashmir of its special status and the abrogation of Article 370 is a tribute to all soldiers martyred on the borders.

Speaking at an event of the Rapid Action Force (RAF) in Ahmedabad, Amit Shah said, “Our Prime Minister has given a fitting tribute to all those jawans who were martyred while securing the nation by scrapping Article 370. This was done so that no other soldier is martyred again on this land.”

Amit Shah was speaking at the 27th Raising Day event of RAF in Ahmedabad.

Home Minister Amit Shah also said how no one had in all these 70 years since Independence thought of paying this tribute to the security forces.

“When we were given this huge mandate for a second time we ensured removing Article 370 from Kashmir is the first job that we do for the country,” said Amit Shah.

“With this, Kashmir will now move on the path of development. If anyone tries to create any disturbance in Kashmir, remember our soldiers are standing at guard,” Shah added.
