Addressing an election rally in Udhampur, PM Modi said, "To maintain their hold on the people, these parties created a monster saying that if Article 370 was removed, Jammu and Kashmir would burn and Will be separated from the country.

He said, "For the sake of power, he had erected the wall of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. With your blessings, Modi has demolished that wall and buried the debris of Article 370 deep in the ground."

Challenging the opposition which is talking about restoring Article 370, PM Modi said that if they do so, people will not even look at them.

Earlier this week, Home Minister Amit Shah, while addressing a public rally in Madhya Pradesh, had also warned the Congress, saying, "Never dare to change Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir."

Shah said, "Though the Congress may not return to power again, but if by chance it happens, I will warn the Congress not to dare to change Article 370. Kashmir is a part of India. Your (Congress) appeasement The politics is over now."
