BJP Opposes Linking J&K Statehood to Pre-1953 Status

Jammu and Kashmir Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma said the BJP supports restoring statehood but opposes a Assembly resolution tying the demand to the pre-1953 constitutional position and Articles 370 and 35A. He questioned the resolution's legal validity, citing the Supreme Court's Article 370 judgment, and accused the National Conference and Congress of diverting attention from governance failures.
