The opposition should nowquietly let this government work," Mr Kher had earlier said.Mr Kher hadalso said that all the issues in the Kashmir Valley will be resolved if Article370, which gives special autonomous status to the state, is abolished.Amid thecurrent uncertainty in Kashmir, there have been concerns that the centre hasplans to tweak or do away with Article 370 and Article 35A, which gives specialrights and privileges to the state's citizens in government jobs and land.
