ARTICLE 370 A TEMPORARY PROVISIONS THAT SOUGHT PERMANENCY

By

Jammu &Kashmir is a land of promise, a promise to religion, culture, nation and most importantly politics. Kashmir has gone through various invasions but has always stood its ground. Many times those who came as friends have turned its foe yet the issue for everyone who is not involved in this issue has always been that why even after so many invasions, Kashmir is hostile to invaders. The demands of the people of Kashmir can never be met as those who rule it have always had a different plan for it. The people of J&K now no longer have any belief on their rulers and rightly so, as everyone has their own plan for them as per their personal agenda. The general population of J&K believes that they have never received what they want and therefore they don’t have any recourse to justice as they have never received it. The general public of India on the other hand believes that J&K should feel grateful to India for supporting it so long. But they fail to comprehend that J&K is a part of India and the special status that it held was because it stood the ground for the rest of the country.Article 370 was brought in as a compromise. When Kashmir acceded to India, Kashmir was given the right to draft its own Constitution. All princely states were given this right but other states accepted the Indian Constitution as being applicable to themselves. Kashmir however constituted its own Constituent Assembly and reserved for itself the right to make its own laws on all but a few matters. However, Article 370 was intended to be temporary until Kashmir’s Constitution was drafted and the Constituent Assembly of Kashmir has the power to recommend the abrogation of Article 370 to the President.But, this temporary provision was stretched for years together mainly due to political reasons. The question that arises now is whether the scrapping of Article 370 which gave a ‘special’ status to Jammu and Kashmir is what the people of Jammu & Kashmir need?
