The Centre on Monday scrapped Article 370 of the Constitution that gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir and converted the border state into a Union Territory with a legislature, implementing the long-held agenda of the party and its predecessor, Jan Sangh.
The state was also split by hiving off Ladakh region from the state and making it into a Union Territory without a legislature.
The series of decisions were tabled in Rajya Sabha amidst huge uproar from the opposition. (ANI)
