Government's effort in containing the J&K situation
As many as 36 members of the Union Council of Ministers visited Jammu and Kashmir in the month of January in order to create awareness about the government's policies, particularly those taken in the last five months after the abrogation of Article 370. The Opposition parties including Congress have left no stones unturned in hitting out at the Central government over the Jammu and Kashmir issue since the abrogation of Article 370. On the matter of the Union Minister's visit to Jammu and Kashmir, Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad had said that it was yet another attempt of the government to mislead the people. On the other hand, the BJP has accused the Congress of toeing the Pakistani line over the matter.

The delegations had given positive feedback on the situation in Kashmir and said that they found normalcy returning in the union territory gradually.
