Adityanath said Kashmir was under Nehru\u2019s direct control after Independence and that his decisions made the issue highly controversial.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">He alleged that the situation created at the time continues to trouble the country even today. According to Adityanath, extremism and separatism in Kashmir emerged because of the approach taken by the first Prime Minister.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Adityanath made these remarks while addressing an event marking the 75th death anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India\u2019s first Home Minister. He praised Patel\u2019s role in integrating more than 560 princely states into the Indian Union after Independence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Referring to Junagadh and Hyderabad, Adityanath said both princely states were successfully merged into India through Patel\u2019s leadership and wisdom. He described the process as a \u201cbloodless revolution&#8221; that ensured national unity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">He added that had Sardar Patel been given responsibility for Jammu and Kashmir instead of Nehru, the issue would not have arisen in the first place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Article 370 and Modi government<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister said the country is grateful to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for fulfilling the vision of Sardar Patel and Dr Syama Prasad Mukherjee. He said the abrogation of Article 370 made Jammu and Kashmir an integral part of India.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">According to Adityanath, the move strengthened the idea of \u201cone nation, one constitution and one flag&#8221;, and corrected what he described as historical mistakes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Yogi slams Pakistan<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Adityanath also criticised Pakistan, warning that its existence would be at risk if it tried to challenge India. He said the time had come for the people of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) to gain freedom and claimed it would soon become part of India.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Responding to remarks by terror accused Hafiz Saeed, Adityanath said Pakistan had already suffered several defeats and should avoid provoking India. He also said India should take a firm stand on the issue of Balochistan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"11\" class=\"story_para_11\">Attack on Congress<\/p>\n<p id=\"12\" class=\"story_para_12\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Commenting on senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh\u2019s reference to \u201cIndia-occupied Kashmir&#8221;, Adityanath said such remarks reflected the Congress party\u2019s mindset. He once again held the party responsible for the Kashmir problem, saying its past decisions had harmed the nation\u2019s interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3 midgprfd\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3 midgprfdbtn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/dlxczavtqcctuei\/news18\/static\/images\/english\/google-color.svg\" width=\"36\" height=\"36\" alt=\"\" class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3\"\/><span class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3\">Click here to add News18 as your preferred news source on Google. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-171864946 atbtlink Location\"><span>Location :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Uttar Pradesh, India, India<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-171864946 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>December 15, 2025, 13:19 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-171864946 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/india\/\">india<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Yogi Adityanath Targets Congress, Holds Nehru Responsible For Separatism In Kashmir<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
