NEW DELHI: Emphasizing the importance of communication tools, Union Minister Prakash Javadekar on Thursday said the “biggest punishment” for people is when they have no means of communication.

The Information and Broadcasting Minister, speaking at the National Awards for community radio event here, also hailed the abrogation of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir as “historic decision.”

“We did a lot of work. In Kashmir, people did not get the right of development like the rest of the country. So that they get this right of development, Article 370 happened. It is a historic decision. The development that Jammu and Kashmir did not have, it will get it now.” (AGENCIES)
