Article 370 Revoked: Mohit Raina, Ekta Kaul, Iqbal Khan, Gurmeet Choudhary & others TV celebs react

In a historic move, Home Minister Amit Shah today announced the revocation of Article 370 that gives Jammu and Kashmir special autonomous rights. The central government has also decided to bifurcate the state into two union territories. One will be Jammu and Kashmir and it will have the legislature and another will be Ladakh and it will be without legislature. Both the union territories will have Lieutenant Governors. To prevent any tensed situations, the government had deployed thousands of paramilitary troops and had asked outsiders and tourists to leave the state. 

As soon as the news broke, many celebs and commoners took to their social media handles to express their views. While some hailed the decision many others criticized it as well. The Geet actor tweeted, "Ever since I spent my childhood in the army camps in #Kashmir I always thought I belonged there. Now with the repealing of #article370 my dream of buying a house and doing business in #kashmir will soon turn into a reality. Kudos on the landmark judgement. Thrilled Jai hind."

Vindu Dara Singh said, "Let Kashmir have peace and prosperity once again as it is  now to be a separate union territory of our beloved India . The Kashmiri people have suffered enough since years now let it be the most beautiful tourist destination on earth !  #JammuAndKashmir." Check out the tweets right below.

In an interview with TOI, Mohit Raina said, "Today is a historical day in the Indian constitution. This was long pending, the common man in the valley has been deprived of all his basic rights i.e education and employment. This movement will only get Kashmir in the forefront for all the right reasons, the investors will create numerous job opportunities for the common man which will in turn boost economy of the state and the youth will not fall prey to people with malicious intentions. This will indirectly reduce violence in valley."
On the other hand, Ekta Kaul said, “My father woke me up telling me to watch the news. I am very happy and relieved. He said, 'It is your state again'. He told me it is a good thing that has happened. We are actually celebrating.”
