Celebrations erupted in parts of Rajasthan on Monday after the Centre revoked Article 370, which grants special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
Large number people took out rallies, burst crackers, distributed sweets and raised chants of 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' after the resolution scrapping Article 370 was passed in the Rajya Sabha.
Welcoming the move, BJP state wing distributed sweets and burst crackers at its state headquarters.
Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje said, "It took 65 years to abrogate Article370 & Article35A but a historic mistake stands corrected today! I Congratulate and thank PM and Home Minister for returning the people of the valley their freedom and identity."
