Chief Justice of India U.U. Lalit on September 23, 2022 indicated that the court may take up the challenge to the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution, which deprived Jammu and Kashmir of its special privileges and led to the bifurcation of the State in 2019.
Responding to an oral mentioning, the CJI said the case would be listed after October 10.
The Article 370 case has been pending in the Supreme Court for over two years even as a separate challenge has been filed against the Centre’s decision to appoint a Delimitation Commission to redraw Lok Sabha and Assembly constituencies of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
