Indian PolityCitizenship, Emergency & Special Provisions
The Government of India revoked the special status, or limited autonomy granted under Article 370 of the Indian Constitution to Jammu and Kashmir—when?
- a.August, 2019
- b.September, 2019
- c.October, 2019
- d.November, 2019
Answer: (A) August, 2019
The Presidential order of 5 August 2019 (C.O. 272) and Parliament's resolution of 6 August 2019 ended the special status under Article 370, and the J&K Reorganisation Act, 2019 followed. The two Union Territories came into existence on 31 October 2019, which is why October is a tempting wrong option.
