We direct that restoration of statehood in Union Territory of J&K shall be done at the earliest, says CJI

We direct that steps be taken by EC to conduct elections of J&K Assembly by Sep 30, 2024, says CJI

Interpretative clause cannot be used to bypass the specific route for a constitutional amendment. Permitting such amendments by such a surreptitious method would be disastrous. : CJI

Removal of Article 370 is Right Decision : SC

We do not find the use of Presidential power to issue CO 273 was MALA FIDE. Thus we hold the exercise of Presidential Power to be VALID: CJI
