Rss: Court verdict will strengthen national unity, says RSS | India News

NEW DELHI: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Monday said the Supreme Court verdict upholding the nullification of Article 370 by the Centre will strengthen national unity.
The RSS has been opposing Article 370 of the Constitution “since the beginning”, Sangh’s all-India publicity head Sunil Ambekar said in a statement.
“The Supreme Court legitimising the abolition of Article 370 is worth welcoming.Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) welcomes this decision,” Ambekar said. The RSS has also passed many resolutions in the matter and participated in all the movements demanding scrapping of the provision which gave a special status to J&K, he said.
“This decision will strengthen national unity. The people who have been suffering injustice in Jammu and Kashmir for years due to Article 370 have got relief from this decision,” Ambekar added. RSS affiliated Vishva Hindu Parishad said the only unfinished agenda for J&K is the “liberation of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir”. “We are confident that a strong India and a determined government will be able to free PoK (Pakistan-occupied Kashmir) soon,” Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) working president Alok Kumar said in a statement.
