The Supreme Court is scheduled to announce its verdict on December 11 regarding petitions challenging the abrogation of Article 370, which conferred special status on Jammu and Kashmir. The five-judge bench, headed by CJI DY Chandrachud, will disclose the decision following a September 5 reserve order after 16 days of hearings. The petitioners, including leaders from the National Conference and People's Democratic Party, contested the government's 2019 move to revoke Article 370 and Article 35A. The latter accorded Jammu and Kashmir distinct legal provisions. The impending verdict holds significance in determining the constitutional ramifications of the abrogation.
