Article 370 specifies that except for defence, foreign affairs, communications and ancillary matters (matters specified in the instrument of accession), the Indian Parliament needs the state government's concurrence for applying all other laws.
Abdullah Tuesday reacted very sharply to Jitendra Singh's statement asserting that either Article 370 will stay or Kashmir would cease to be a part of the country.
Opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president and Lok Sabha member Mehbooba Mufti too said her party would oppose any move to revoke Article 370.
Abdullah also took exception to central Minorities Affairs Minister Najma Heptullah's statement that reservations are not the solution to the problems of the Indian Muslims.
