New Delhi: The Supreme Court is about to hear the petition filed against the removal of Article 370 of the Constitution from Jammu and Kashmir. In the petition filed in the court, questions have also been raised on the reorganization of Jammu and Kashmir into two union territories and the abolition of special status. The Supreme Court has said to list the petition and has agreed to hear it in July. Senior advocate Sheikh Naphade said before the bench of the Chief Justice that this is a matter of Article 370. Now the delimitation of Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha seats is also going on in Jammu and Kashmir. To this, Chief Justice (CJI) NV Ramanna said, 'I see.'

To this, Naphade said that the petition challenging the removal of Article 370 should be heard at least in July after the summer vacations are over. On this, the CJI said that let's look at this matter after the holidays, this matter belongs to a bench of 5 judges. We have to reconstitute benches etc. Let us inform that on August 5, 2019, the decision was taken to remove Article 370, bifurcate Jammu and Kashmir into two parts. After this, petitions were filed in the court in December, 2019, for hearing CJI NV Ramanna, Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul, R. Subhash Reddy, BR Gavai and Surya Kant.

One of them, Judge R. Subhash Reddy has retired in January this year. It is believed that the CJI has said because of his retirement that he will reconstitute the bench. Then the issue arose in the court whether there was a need to send this application before a 7-judge bench. On this, the court, in its order dated March 2, had said that there is no need to send it to a larger bench.
