Indian Americans on Monday congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Union Home Minister Amit Shah for "taking the bold step" to revoke Article 370, which gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
The Indian government abolished Article 370 and moved a separate bill to split the state into two union territories of Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh
He said, "One can see the celebrations in Streets of India with joy and jubilation which I am witnessing firsthand as I am in India and am part of this historic party. This revocation of article 370 was long overdue a Nehruvian blunder the nation had to go through for the last 70 years ravishing the economy of Kashmiris and rest of India."
Ashutosh Varshney, author and Sol Goldman Professor of International Studies, tweeted, "The real questions are legal & constitutional. Can Art. 370 be scrapped with an executive order, or through a constitutional amendment?"
