UAE’s reaction over the removal of article 370 in Kashmir

The Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates to India, Dr. Ahmed Albanna on August 6, 2019, maintained that removal of Article 370 which gives special privileges to Jammu and Kashmir, by the Indian Government which was later approved by the Indian Parliament too, is internal matter of India, as stipulated by the Indian Constitution. On Jammu and Kashmir reorganisation bill 2019, which declares Ladakh region as well as the Jammu and Kashmir two new Union Territories of India, the UAE Ambassador was quoted as saying that, from his understanding such a reorganisation of states was not a unique incident in the history of independent India and was aimed at reducing regional disparity.
