Shah single-handedly steered the entire process of seeing through the bill to reorganize the state of Jammu & Kashmir in the Parliament. He held an hour-long meeting with Modi on Monday morning before heading to the Parliament where he broke the news of the the government's decision to end special status of Jammu & Kashmir amidst a huge ruckus by opposition parties in the Rajya Sabha.

Ending days of uncertainty and speculation over troop build-up and subsequent house-arrest of local leaders in the valley on Sunday night, Shah told the Rajya Sabha that a Presidential order had been issued to end special privileges to J&K.

Twitter users hailed throughout the day on how the triumvirate of Modi-Shah-Doval (NSA Ajit Doval) successfully co-ordinated among themselves to see through the entire process of ending special status of J&K and bifurcating the state into two Union territories. It was speculated that Modi held together allied political parties and Doval oversaw the security situation while Shah saw to it that the bifurcation bill passed through smoothly in the Parliament.
