Special Status For Jammu And Kashmir: To Stay Or Go?

While the Supreme Court will over the next few weeks hear a petition asking for Article 35A, which grants special status to Jammu and Kashmir, to be scrapped, the PDP is in New Delhi on Friday to explain to the Centre what scrapping 35A would mean to Jammu and Kashmir. Last week too, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said she was happy with the PM's assurance. We debate on Reality Check if Jammu and Kashmir should continue to have its special status and how much would the state's demographics be affected if it were to be repealed.
