The Biju Janata Dal (BJD)’s decision to support the NDA government’s resolution to scrap Article 370 was guided by the opinion of party supremo and Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, a party MP said on Monday.
Rajya Sabha MP Prasanna Acharya said Jammu and Kashmir in real sense has now become an integral part of the country.
BJD, which which is neither a constituent of the NDA nor of the opposition UPA, has seven members in the upper house of Parliament.
