Post Pahalgam attack, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey says scrap freedom to manage religious affairs clause

Following the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey has called for the revocation of Article 26 of the Indian Constitution, which grants religious denominations the right to manage their own affairs in matters of religion.
