Removal of article 370 valid?

Due to article 370 Kashmir had there own freedom and rights , they had there separate constitution

It all started during the time of partition on 1947 where India got divided into two countries making Jammu and Kashmir separate. To make Jammu and Kashmir part of there country Pakistan tried by attacking them , then J&K accepted to be a part of India so they can get help to fight Pakistan, in which India won and made J&K part of India

India provided Kashmir with :-

  • All India Services Act
  • Negotiable Instruments Act
  • Border Security Force Act
  • Central Vigilance Commission Ac

Article 370 provided Kashmir with 6 special provisions :-

  1. It exempted the State from the complete applicability of the Constitution of India. The State was allowed to have its own Constitution.
  2. Central legislative powers over the State were limited, at the time of framing, to the three subjects of defence, foreign affairs and communications.
  3. Other constitutional powers of the Central Government could be extended to the State only with the concurrence of the State Government.
  4. The ‘concurrence’ was only provisional. It had to be ratified by the State’s Constituent Assembly.
  5. The State Government’s authority to give ‘concurrence’ lasted only until the State Constituent Assembly was convened. Once the State Constituent Assembly finalised the scheme of powers and dispersed, no further extension of powers was possible.
  6. The Article 370 could be abrogated or amended only upon the recommendation of the State’s Constituent Assembly.

With all the freedom and support J&K was becoming a terror state by helping terrorist association to attack on India, people there had no jobs or regular life , people tried to hurt our soldiers several times by throwing stones for which they got paid by Pakistan 350 to 500 rupees. They use to burn our Indian flags and disrespect our country many times but no one could do nothing as they were not part of our country

On 5 August 2019. the Home Minister Amit Shah  announced in the Rajya Sabha (upper house of the Indian Parliament) that the President of India had issued a presidential order (C.O. 272) under Article 370, superseding the 1954 order. The order stated that all the provisions of the Indian Constitution applied to Jammu and Kashmir. Whereas the 1954 order specified that only some articles of the Indian constitution to apply to the state, the new order removed all such special provisions. This in effect meant that the separate constitution of Jammu and Kashmir stood abrogated. Home Minister Amit Shah also moved a resolution recommending that the president issue an order rendering all clauses of Article 370 inoperative. On 6 August 2019, the president issued Constitutional Order 273, that did so and replaced the extant text of Article 370 with: On 5 August 2019. the Home Minister Amit Shah  announced in the Rajya Sabha (upper house of the Indian Parliament) that the President of India had issued a presidential order (C.O. 272) under Article 370, superseding the 1954 order.
