An Examination of the Conceptual Framework around the Constitutional Abolition of Article 370 in the Indian Constitution and its Socio-Political Consequences for Pakistan

Abstract

    Over the state of Jammu and Kashmir, India and Pakistan have been at enmity since the subcontinent was divided into two distinct states. Prime Minister Nehru reiterated the statement, ensuring that the people of Kashmir would depart immediately if they desired an Indian departure. The region's provisional agreement with India's main territory was subsequently guaranteed by Articles 370 and 35-A of the Indian Constitution. In this study, the consequences and impact of India's annulment of Article 370 on Pakistan are evaluated. The research study takes a qualitative approach, focusing primarily on secondary sources of data based on document analysis. The primary findings of the study indicate that the deteriorating law and order situation in Kash is primarily due to the abrogation of Article 370 in the Indian Constitution. This will have a huge impact on Pakistan's security paradigm by making her more vulnerable to India's hegemonic designs.
