THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC FALLOUT OF ABROGATING ARTICLE 370 AND 35A IN IOJK
Abstract
This research paper scrutinizes the negative socioeconomic repercussions stemming from India’s unilateral decision of abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A by the BJP-led Indian government on 5th August 2019 in Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK). Through a comprehensive analysis of primary and secondary sources, including interviews, surveys, reports, articles and books, this study examines the multifaceted impact on areas such as human rights, education, health, tourism, agriculture, trade, employment and culture in the context of India's actions. The research paper also examines the legal and constitutional aspects, as well as the responses from the global society. It offers policy recommendations aimed at addressing the consequences of this decision and promoting stability in the region's context. The paper asserts that the abrogation has significantly disrupted the socioeconomic well-being of the region's population while infringing upon their democratic rights and aspirations.
