SC junks PIL seeking declaration that Article 370 abrogation constitutionally valid

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday dismissed a petition seeking a declaration that abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution, which bestowed special status on the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir, was constitutionally valid. Terming the plea as "misconceived", a bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud said the issue of constitutional validity of abrogation of Article 370 is already pending before a constitution bench of the apex court. The bench noted that the petitioner has filed a public interest litigation seeking a declaration to the effect that abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution and the deletion of Article 35-A were constitutionally valid. A five-judge constitution bench headed by the CJI is hearing arguments on a batch of petitions challenging the abrogation of the provisions of Article 370 and the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019, which split the erstwhile state into two union territories - Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh.
