Special Status of J&K Ended with the Abrogation of Article 370


Article 370 of the Indian Constitution that grants special status to the state of Jammu & Kashmir has been discarded, following which the state will now be governed by the Central Government. The Union Home Minister of India, Amit Shah announced the scrapping of Article 370 in Rajya Sabha today.



According to the sources, the announcement came after Indian PM Narendra Modi organized a cabinet meeting at his house before the beginning of today’s Parliament Session.

The declaration of “Article 370 Scrapped” has instantly come into force after being signed by Indian President Ram Nath Kovind. Jammu & Kashmir will no longer be considered as a state. It will be bifurcated in to two union territories, namely Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh. While Jammu & Kashmir will have a legislature, Ladakh will be without a legislature, the sources said. Mr. Amit Shah also introduced a reorganization bill for J&K.

The abrogation of Article 370 Kashmir is expected to have profound aftermath on the already-fidgety state. The repeal of the provision of being called “special state” has rendered the section inoperative that allowed the State Assembly to ratify all the rules & regulations concerning J&K.
