Declared tax free in Chhattisgarh
On Friday, the Chhattisgarh BJP administration proclaimed the Bollywood blockbuster “Article 370” to be tax-free within the state. After seeing the movie at a Raipur mall in the evening, Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai announced that it was tax-exempt. The movie revolves with the repeal of Article 370 of the Indian Constitution, which granted Jammu and Kashmir a special status.
The BJP government in Madhya Pradesh, a neighbouring state, had chosen to grant the movie tax exemption the day before. According to a statement released by the state public relations department, Sai was accompanied by his wife, Kaushalya Devi Sai, and cabinet colleagues, Ramvichar Netam and Kedar Kashyap. “The situation in Kashmir has been depicted very well in the film and it tells us how due to Article 370, Kashmir was lagging behind in development and how hard our leaders had to work to eliminate the provision,” the chief minister was quoted as saying in the release.
“Our ideology is about one country, one constitution, one symbol. Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir was inconsistent with this basic ideology. Our leaders have strongly opposed it since independence,” Sai said.
We had resolved to remove Article 370. The resolution was fulfilled under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Today Kashmir is moving towards peace,” he added
