Malik further stated that several political parties are claiming to be in fovour of the Article while as others advocate its abrogation. “Those assembly members who are raising hue and cry for this Article are themselves responsible for its 95 percent dilution.” He further stated that the debate is generated only to undermine the vitality of the resolution of Kashmir.
