Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday dared the Congress to make its stand clear on the Kashmir issue and asserted that government leaders were ready to sacrifice their lives for the state.
He read out the article of the Constitution to state that Jammu and Kashmir (including Pakistan-occupied Kashmir) was an integral part of India.
After moving the resolution and bills in the Lok Sabha for consideration and passing, Shah said that the issue was not political and legislation was based on constitutional and legal provisions.
