Implications Of Abrogation Of Article 370
On 5th August 2019, India revoked Article 370 and all its auxiliary articles through a constitutional order. There are some objectives that India wants to achieve through this revocation but she should not forget that this move will have its own far reaching implications. Some of these implications are discussed in below paragraphs.
Alter Delicate Security Situation in South Asia: The valley of Jammu and Kashmir is a disputed territory between Pakistan and India. Both states have claim over its territory and have fought three major wars and several skirmishes over it. Since 1948, when India took the issue to United Nations Organization for solution, decision on the accession of the valley is on hold. Both states in general and India in particular has always said No to the solution options of the United Nations Security Council Resolutions.
Understanding Article 370 And 35 A
In such critical circumstances when the issue is still un-resolved, such a unilateral move of India may intense security situation in the region. Both states are atomic power and their relations have further deteriorated due to the unrealistic behavior and policies of Bhartiya Janata Party’s (BJP) government in India.
Rise of Terrorism in The Region: India’s imperialistic move of revoking Article 370 and forcibly integration of the valley of Jammu and Kashmir in the Union will further deteriorated security situation in the valley and in the region which will give a chance to terrorist groups to penetrate in the valley. This will not only worsen security situation in the valley but also in India and surrounding region.
Pakistan And The Future Of Kashmir Cause
Violation of United Nations Security Council Resolutions: By revoking Article 370 with all its auxiliary articles and by annulling the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, India has openly negated and violated United Nations Security Council Resolutions (UNSCR). This show two things;
- United Nations Security Council (UNSC) incapability to compel India and to implement its decisions in the resolution of Kashmir Issue
- India’s misbid for United Nations Organization and its Security Council
India’s unilateral and imperialistic move has raised questions on the authority and position of United Nations Organization and United Nations Security Council in international affairs and disputes.
Indian Motives Behind Revoking Article 370
Questions on Indian Democracy: The unlawful revocation of Article 370 along with its subsidiary articles and the annulment of special status of Jammu and Kashmir have raised questions on the democracy of India. The self claimed largest democracy in the world, India has took steps that are not only against the principles of democracy but also unlawful as per its constitution. According to Indian Constitution, Article 370 can be revoked in agreement with the state government of Kashmir but Indian Government took the step without fulfilling the pre-requisite condition.
Human Rights Violation: The revocation of special articles has also resulted in the rise of human rights violation cases. Indian army in the name of establishing law and order in the valley is targeting freedom demonstration and its workers.
Conclusion
To conclude we can say that the revocation of Article 370 and the annulment of special status of Jammu and Kashmir will have severe impacts on both India and the region. The above mentioned impacts are some of them.
