IN THE NEWS A blow against Article 370 and Federalism
EXAM POINT OF VIEW The below article deals with –
Constitutional relationship between J&K and the Indian Union
Gradual Erosion of J&K special status under Article 370
Context:
On March 1, 2019, the 77th and 103rd constitutional amendments were extended to Jammu and
Kashmir (J&K) by a presidential order, with the concurrence of the J&K Governor.
77th constitutional amendment – relates to reservations in promotions for Scheduled
Castes and Scheduled Tribes in the State services
103rd constitutional amendment – relates to special provisions for the advancement of
economically weaker sections (10% reservation in education and government jobs to EWS)
However, a petition was been filed in the Jammu and Kashmir High Court challenging the extension
of above amendments of the Indian Constitution to the J&K state through a presidential order.
The above issue has rekindled the long-standing debate on the continued relevance of Article 370.
Do you know?
As in Article 370, the provisions of the Indian Constitution do not automatically apply to J&K.
To extend constitutional provisions and amendments to the State, a presidential order to that
effect has to be passed.
This order requires the concurrence of the State government, where the subject matter does
not relate to the subjects specified in the Instrument of Accession (defence, external affairs, and
communications). For other cases, only consultation is required.
