Article 370: Netizens praise Yami Gautam Dhar's Performance in Political Drama

In 2019, everyone witnessed the blockbuster 'Uri: The Surgical Strike' during the general elections.

Article 370 dives into politics, serving its purpose unapologetically.

About Article 370 

The movie blends facts with fiction, incorporating some convenient untruths. It leans into the right-wing narrative, highlighting alleged "blunders" by Jawaharlal Nehru and Maharaja Hari Singh's supposed "inclination" towards India in Kashmir. Article 370 portrays the government's revocation of Jammu and Kashmir's special status as a masterclass in statecraft, considering the bending of constitutional obligations as a necessary evil.

PM Narendra Modi Praises Yami Gautam's Article 370

Even Prime Minister Narendra Modi has lauded the film. During a rally in Jammu on February 20, he spoke about Article 370, stating that it provides accurate information and is beneficial.

The movie revolves around Article 370 of the Indian Constitution, which granted special privileges to Jammu and Kashmir, making it different from other states. This article provided the state with its constitution and greater autonomy. However, on August 5, 2019, the Indian government, through a presidential order, removed these special privileges, thereby altering the status of Jammu and Kashmir.
