During this, he said, “For the last several decades, India has got unstable governments and due to this instability, when India had to take off, it could not do so. Today the country is reaching new heights. Jammu and Kashmir also participated enthusiastically in the recently held elections and I have come here to meet those who participated in this celebration of democracy. Gave true meaning to humanity, democracy and Kashmiriyat.”

PM Modi said, “Preparations for the assembly elections have begun. The day is not far when the valley will decide its future as a state. Today, the Constitution of India has been implemented in the true sense in Jammu and Kashmir and all this is happening because the wall of Article 370 that divided everyone has now fallen. Today we are seeing the vision of humanity, democracy and Kashmiriyat given by Atal ji turning into reality. You have made democracy win in this election. You have broken the record of the last 35-40 years.”

The years old demand of the Balmiki community was fulfilled. For the first time, OBC reservation has been implemented in Panchayat, Nagar Palika and Municipal Corporation. He further said that whatever I am doing day and night for the country, I am doing it with good intentions. I am working with great honesty and dedication so that a way can be made to get out of the sufferings suffered by the previous generations of Kashmir.
