Meanwhile, Article 370, which confers special status to Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), will be removed, said Home Minister Amit Shah in parliament this morning. The announcement came after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a meeting of his cabinet at his house this morning.
Article 370 gave J&K its own constitution and decision-making rights for all matters barring defence, communications and foreign affairs. The removal of this part of the constitution ends special status for Kashmir, which was key to its accession to India in 1947. Article 370 made it necessary for the centre to get the state legislature's approval for introducing any policies or constitutional powers to the state.
Making the announcement on bifurcation of J&K in Rajya Sabha, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said the Union Territory (UT) in Ladakh will have no legislature like Chandigarh while the other UT of J&K will have a legislature like Delhi and Puducherry. Shah introduced the J&K Reorganisation bill.
