J&K : Art.35A (2017 Memory)
2017 Memory
J & K : Art.35A
-----------------------
Art.35A of the Constitution of India empowers the J&K Legislature to define Permanent Residents of the state and provides Special Rights and Privileges to the Permanent Residents.
Art.35A prevents 'Outsiders' from owning Property and applying for jobs in the state.
It is Violation of Art.14. Art.14 says," The State shall not deny to any person,'Equality before Law','Equal Protection of the Laws' within the territory of India."
In Sushila Sawhney Case 2002,the J & K HC held that the daughter of a permanent resident marrying a person outside the state would not lose the status of permanent resident of J & K.
Recently, the Art.35A was being challenged in the Supreme Court ,as it is discriminatory against women, if they married anyone outside the state. Men do not lose their Right to own property or the Right of Inheritance, if they marry someone outside.
Protests are being erupted by Political Parties as well as different interest Groups.
The CM met the PM on the Issue as Art.35A : Agenda of Alliance (PDP & BJP). The PM gave 100% Assurance to the Agenda of Alliance.
To my Opinion, India is a Nation of the United States and UTs. We,All should be united as Indians. Provided that No Discrimination would be to the people of India in Religion, Region, Gender, etc. .
People of J & K have been treating as par people of other states. J & K is integral part/state of India, it must be in future. We should understand them better.

THANKS to Central Govt for integrating J&K into India through its bold Step.
