Article 370

A Constitutional History of Jammu and Kashmir

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Alternating deftly between politics and history, this book examines a wide range of documents pertaining to Article 370. A.G. Noorani incisively analyses the implications and consequences of the article for the constitutional democracy of the state and the nation. From Jammu and Kashmir's accession to India in 1947 to the various negotiations thereafter; Sheikh Abdullah's arrest to the framing of the Constitution of Jammu and Kashmir and the replacement ofSadar-i-Riyasat, this book impeccably documents the little-known constitutional history of the state.
