What is Article 370?

The government then surprised everyone by saying it was withdrawing nearly all of Article 370, which 35A is part of and which has been the basis of Kashmir’s complicated relationship with India for some 70 years.

Tens of thousands of new Indian troops were stationed, a major Hindu pilgrimage was canceled, schools and colleges were shut, tourists were ordered to leave, telephone and internet services were suspended and regional political leaders were placed under house arrest.

But most of the speculation was that Article 35A of the Indian constitution, which gave some special privileges to the people of the state, would be scrapped.

The article permitted the expression a definite measure of independence – its own constitution, a different banner, and opportunity to make laws. International concerns, protection, and messages stayed the safe of the local government. 

Accordingly, Jammu and Kashmir could make their own standards identifying with super durable residency, responsibility for, and essential rights. It could likewise banish Indians from outside the state from buying property or settling there.

Kashmir will soon don’t have a different constitution yet should comply with the Indian constitution similar to some other state. All Indian laws will be consequently relevant to Kashmiris, and individuals from outside the state will actually want to obtain property there. 

The public authority says this will carry improvement to the area.

As registered by the constitution, Article 370 must be modified with the arrangement of the “state government”. Yet, there hasn’t been a very exceptional state government in Jammu and Kashmir for longer than a year at this point. 

In June last year, India forced bureaucratic standards after the public authority of the then chief minister, Mehbooba Mufti, was diminished to a minority. This implied the central government simply needed to look for the approval of the lead representative who forces its standard. 

The public authority says it is in a good place to acquire the progressions and that comparative choices have been taken by central governments before.

Suprme Court pulls up Delhi body for not conducting tree census

Suprme Court pulls up Delhi body for not conducting tree census

The court said that it will order the constitution of an expert body to vet every proposal for tree felling in the city

The Supreme Court on Friday pulled up the Delhi Tree Authority (DTA) for failing to carry out a tree census in the Capital as required under the Delhi Tree Preservation Act (DTPA). The court added that it will order the constitution of an expert body to vet every proposal for tree felling in the city, observing that DTA lacks the expertise to do this job.

A bench headed by justice Abhay S Oka was considering an application filed by a Delhi resident, Bhavreen Kandhari, which raised questions over the performance of DTA — a statutory body under DTPA that has allowed more than 60,000 trees to be felled between 2015 and 2021. The court had issued notice on the application on November 8 as the data presented by Kandhari suggested that Delhi was losing five trees every hour.

On Friday, the bench, also comprising justice Augustine George Masih, took up DTA’s response and said, “We want to know how DTA is functioning. Has it carried out any census of trees?” The court cited Section 7 of DTPA, 1994 (or is it 1995), which says “carrying out census of the existing trees” and “preservation of all trees” in Delhi is one of the functions of DTA.

“We intend to pass an order that no permission for tree cutting shall be passed unless it is vetted by this expert body. Unless there is a record of the number of trees, nothing can be done. Has this been undertaken? It was the duty of DTA to do this under the Act,” the court said.

The bench asked senior advocate Guru Krishnakumar, who was assisting the court as amicus, to indicate whether there should be a threshold, such as cutting of 100 or more trees, when an issue can be sent for consideration to the expert body. “Considering the diminishing green cover, we are considering whether a body of experts should consider every permission for felling of trees. We will pass orders that no permission for tree felling shall be passed unless vetted by this body. Some threshold can be fixed and DTA will have to comply with the recommendation made by the expert body,” the court said.
