The Union government must now file a counter affidavit in the Supreme Court to defend 35-A. That is the way to carry this assurance forward. he tweeted.

"The Government didn't initiate anything on Article 35A nor went to the Court. I assure that the government would never take a step which hurts sentiments of people of Jammu and Kashmir," Home Minister Rajnath Singh said while addressing the crowd on his three-day tour of the valley.
