Normalcy returning to J&K, no curfew, says Union Minister

Union Minister Pralhad Joshi on Saturday said normalcy was returning to Jammu and Kashmir and that there was no curfew besides debunking allegations of lockdown there since the scrapping of Article 370.

Delivering a lecture here on 'One Nation, One Constitution', Joshi said allegations have been levelled that many are in the lock-up.

"So, should it mean that we should keep them outside? Only those against India are in the lockup," he said.

Joshi said he has travelled to many parts of the country.

"..Everywhere people asked me if there is curfew in Kashmir. I told them that there is no curfew there."
No firing happened. No demonstrations took place."
Warning Pakistan for raking up the issue of abrogation of Article 370, Joshi said "If Pakistan continues with its drama, days arent far away when Pakistan occupied Kashmir will be part of India."
