On the second anniversary of August 5, 2019, when article 370 was abrogated and J&K was divided into two union territories former Union Home Minister and Congress leader P. Chidambaram has described the act of the central government as an unconstitutional coup.

In a tweet on Thursday Chidambaram said, “This day (August 5) two years ago a (un)constitutional coup was executed in J&K.

Every aspect of democracy was desecrated on that day and India’s democratic credentials were diminished in the eyes of the world

We must stand resolutely with the people of J&K”.

Chidambaram has told his party Congress that along with other democratic forces they should stand with the people of Jammu and Kashmir and help them to get back their rights.
