The Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act 2019

The Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization Act 2019 has been implemented by the Constitution Order 2019 promulgated by the Honorable President. There were many constitutional, political and social problems in the removal of Article 370, which was a complex article of the legislature related to the Indian Constitution, yet the Government of India removed all the problems of this disputed article pending for years and created Jammu and Kashmir. Has done a commendable and commendable job of connecting the state with the mainstream of development.

Obstacles in the Removal of Article 370

There were mainly two obstacles in connecting Jammu and Kashmir with the mainstream of development, which are as follows –

  • Article 370 : According to the provision of Article 370 (3) “The President may, by public notification, declare Article 370 not to be in operation or to be in force with exceptions and modifications, however, the recommendation of the Constituent Assembly of the State of such notification is necessary. Will be. The problem here was that the Constituent Assembly was dissolved after Jammu and Kashmir came into force with its own constitution, without which the President of India was unable to change the provision related to Article 370.
  • Article 35 (A) : Article 35 (A) was implemented by the President under the Constitution Order 1954, which was applicable to Jammu and Kashmir. This order was given by the President under Article 370 (1) (d). It was implemented not in the main part of the Indian Constitution but under Appendix 1, which was only for the state of Jammu and Kashmir. It was not passed by the Parliament of India.

Solution to the Obstacles in the Removal of Article 370

To remove the above mentioned obstacles, the following provisions and works were done –

  • As per the provision of Section 2 of the Constitution Order 2019, all the provisions of the Constitution of India shall apply with reference to the State of Jammu and Kashmir.
  • Clause (4) was added to article 367 of the Constitution, with other provisions thereunder, in the proviso to article 370, 'Constituent Assembly of the State' was substituted by 'Legislative Assembly of the State'.
  • Article 370 of the Constitution was not omitted by the Constitution Order 2019, but a way was made to remove its provision.
  • Work to remove the provisions of Article 370: Since the Constituent Assembly of Jammu and Kashmir was dissolved, therefore the powers of the Legislative Assembly to replace the Constituent Assembly of Jammu and Kashmir with the Legislative Assembly and the implementation of President's rule in the state For the time being vested in the Governor. Due to which the way was paved for the Central Government to remove the provisions of Article 370.
    • Therefore, using the powers obtained under Article 370 (3) on the basis of the recommendation made under the resolution passed in the Parliament, the President announced by notification on 05 August 2019, that from 06 August 2019 all the provisions of Article 370 of the Constitution shall cease to operate, except the following which read as follows – “370. All the provisions of this Constitution, as amended from time to time, shall, without any modification or exception, apply to the State of Jammu and Kashmir….. ,
  • Work related to removal of the provision of Article 35 (A): As we have read earlier, no constitutional amendment was done under Article 368 of the Parliament to add Article 35 (A) to the Constitution. It was added only by the notification of the Hon'ble President. This also became the reason for its controversy, because any notification, which is not passed by the Parliament, is valid only for 06 months. After that they themselves become inactive or ineffective.
    • Since 35 (A) was implemented under Article 370 (1) (d), therefore, with the original provision of Article 370 not being in force, Article 35 (A) applicable in the context of the State also automatically ended. Done |
  • Due to the termination of the provisions of Article 370 and Article 35 (A) and all the provisions of the Constitution are applicable to the state of Jammu and Kashmir, according to Article 03 of the Constitution, the Parliament can reorganize the states. Parliament reorganized the territories of the state of Jammu and Kashmir using this provision.
