Freedom suppressed all over India but most severely in J-K, claims Chidambaram

Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Sunday attacked the government over its assertion that the abrogation of Article 370 ushered peace in Jammu and Kashmir, alleging that “freedom is suppressed” all over India but it is most severely suppressed in the Union Territory.

On the fourth anniversary of Article 370’s abrogation, the government on Saturday highlighted that the “historic” decision ushered in peace and development in Jammu and Kashmir.

The biggest change after the abrogation of the article is that the common people of Jammu and Kashmir are living life according to their own wishes, Lieutenant Governor (LG) Manoj Sinha had said in Srinagar.
