Constitution Bench Resumes Hearing on Article 370 Dilution
A Constitution Bench is set to resume hearing today on a batch of petitions challenging the dilution of Article 370 of the Constitution. This article took away the special status of Jammu and Kashmir. The bench, consisting of Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, Justices SK Kaul, Sanjiv Khanna, BR Gavai, and Surya Kant, will continue deliberations on this contentious issue.
Yesterday’s Proceedings
In yesterday’s proceedings, Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal argued that Article 370 could not be abrogated as the Jammu and Kashmir Constituent Assembly never recommended it before its dissolution. This argument presents a significant challenge to the government’s decision to dilute Article 370. The bench also discussed the “temporary” nature of the provision, adding another layer of complexity to the case.
