<ul><li>Two days after Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were brought directly under the central government's control, Prime Minister Narendra Modi chose to make a special address to the nation.</li><li>Modi also said that the Union Territory status of Jammu and Kashmir is a temporary measure and the state will get its own assembly as soon as possible.</li><li>While the contentious decision has been contested by his rivals, both houses of the Indian Parliament have approved the Presidential order that redefined Jammu and Kashmir's political status.</li><li>Article 370 and Article 35A had given nothing but terrorism, separatism, dynasty politics, and corruption," he said.</li></ul>Two days the state of Jammu and Kashmir, including the Ladakh region, were split into two Union Territories, Prime Minister Narendra Modi revealed that this is a temporary measure only. While Ladakh will remain under the direct control of the central government, Jammu and Kashmir will get to hold its elections once again and elect a local leader. To those who oppose the move to abrogate Article 370 and Article 35A in Jammu and Kashmir -- provisions that allowed the state to make its own laws -- Modi said that he respects their right to disagree but urged them to keep aside the differences in 'national interest'. This speech has come two days after the central government wrested direct control over the volatile Jammu and Kashmir state by disbanding the province into two Union Territories namely Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, first through a Presidential order and later got it ratified by the Parliament.

 He assured the people of Jammu and Kashmir that the situation in the region will come back to normal as soon as possible and promised that there will be no obstacle in the upcoming Eid celebrations next week. In his address, PM Modi said that "Article 370 and Article 35A had given nothing but terrorism, separatism, dynasty politics, and corruption." He also added that Pakistan had been using this as a weapon to push its agenda in Kashmir and that over 42,000 people lost their lives in the process. Modi also said that the women of Kashmir were denied equal rights, poor workers did not not get the benefit of India's minimum wage laws, and socially marginalised Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes were deprived of the benefits of the central government's affirmative action. He also promised state benefits, for government employees including the Police in Jammu and Kashmir as well as in Ladakh, like leave travel allowance, house rent allowance, and allowance for children's education among others. "We have removed the obstacles to the development of Jammu and Kashmir," said Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his special address to the nation, which will also be aired on the state-owned All India Radio.

Jammu and Kashmir will become a state again but after some time, reveals Prime Minister Narendra Modi

In a move deemed as a very significant one in the face of Indian democratic governance, the Rajya Sabha approved the Jammu and Kashmir <keyword id="7821367" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="reservation-bill-2019">Reservation Bill 2019</keyword> after the amendments were approved by the Lok Sabha two days earlier. Here are the highlights of what we must know about the Jammu Kashmir Reservation Bill 2019. What has changed now The present bill replaces the Jammu and Kashmir Amendment Ordinance 2019 which was issued earlier on March 1, 2019. This bill gives room for some amendments in the Jammu and Kashmir Reservation Act passed in 2004 that aims to get the people residing in the areas near the international border within the purview of reservation on par with the people residing in the areas adjacent to the Actual Line of Control (ALoC). Who the bill will benefit As per the earlier bill, 3% reservation was allowed for the youth residing within 6 kms of the line of control in Jammu and Kashmir. As per the new amendments, this provision will be extended to the people living near the international border too. This measure will come to benefit the people living in Jammu, Samba and Kathua regions. Notably, the people inhabiting these regions have been pressing the government for so long to give this concession as they are confronting the impacts of cross-border firing in the Jammu and Kashmir region. At the same time, the compulsory 7 year service provision will also be applicable for the people living near the international border. How is the change effected By virtue of the Presidential order, the cabinet implemented the 77th constitutional amendment of 1995 to Jammu and Kashmir in order to give the benefits of reservation in promotion in the government services to the scheduled castes and scheduled tribes. In addition, the cabinet applied the 103 constitutional amendment of 2019 to Jammu and Kashmir that sanctioned 10% reservation to the economically backward segments of people in the general category. The setting in J&amp;K When the BJP withdrew its support to the PDP in November 2018, the Governor <keyword id="2773123" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Satya-Pal-Malik">Satya Pal Malik</keyword> dissolved the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly. With this move, the state came under the president’s rule. Due to security reasons, elections were not conducted so far here. Amidst this background, the parliament passed this bill and the parliament’s upper house gave its consent to extend the president’s rule in Jammu and Kashmir for the next six months. What is the controversy now While passing the Jammu and Kashmir Reservation Bill 2019, the central government claims that the given constitutional amendment was recommended by the State Administrative Council (SAC) under the leadership of Satya Pal Malik, the present governor for Jammu and Kashmir. None has questioned the decision of the government with regard to the latest amendment to favor the SCs, STs and EWS. However, there is an opposition to the way it has been accomplished. These sources quote from <keyword id="405091" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Article-370">Article 370</keyword> that states that the provisions found in the Act of Parliament for Jammu and Kashmir can be done only with the concurrence of the state government. The question is whether the recent amendment can be approved during the time when the state is under the President’s rule.

In a bid to upgrade <keyword id="2939956" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="road-infrastructure-in-Jammu-and-Kashmir">road infrastructure in Jammu and Kashmir</keyword>, the Central Government granted Rs 3,500 crore for two road projects in Jammu city. 
 
Informing about the development, Jammu and Kashmir Altaf Bukhari said that two ring road projects for Srinagar and Jammu were also approved. 
Bukhari added that the road projects will remove bottlenecks and decongest traffic. 
 
The minister said that upgradation of Srinagar-Jammu highway was sped up and the ambitious project is likely to be commissioned by next year. 
 
"Given the sluggish performance of the project contractors, the Government has changed RAMKY with Project Management Unit to ensure speedy completion of the project and provide assured all-weather connectivity to Kashmir," he told news agency PTI.

</td></tr></tbody></table> Data from Election Commission Jammu and Kashmir has been sliced down the middle with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) claiming seats in Jammu and Ladakh, while the valley has chosen Farooq Abdullah's Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) to represent them. In fact, this is Abdullah's fourth win in Srinagar in his 42-year political career. The state has a reputation for low voter participation. Since 1998, Jammu and Kashmir has registered to lowest voter turnout of all the Indian states in every election. This year, the voter turnout dipped even further. In Anantnag, one of Jammu and Kashmir’s constituencies, the voter turnout was a mere 8.76% — the worst the constituency has seen in two decades. The share of people that did vote chose JKNC's Hasnian Masoodi. In fact, a lot of constituencies that are considered to be PDP’s strongholds recorded low polling numbers as separatists and militant groups reportedly called for a boycott of the Lok Sabha Election. Jammu and Kashmir has 6 Lok Sabha constituencies in total. Baramulla and Jammu went for polling during the first phase of 2019 Lok Sabha elections on April 11. Srinagar and Udhampur voted during the second phase of elections on April 18. The polling in Ladakh was conducted on May 6. Since it has been declared as a highly sensitive constituency, the single seat of Anantnag went for polling in three phases on April 23, 29 and May 6, which was a record setting news in the history of Indian elections. For three years, the constituency of Anantnag remained vacant. Now the key contesting candidates working out their luck from Anantnag seat are Sofi Youssaf of BJP, Ghulam Ahmed Mir of Congress, Hasnain Masoodi of National Conference and Mehbooba Mufti of PDP. In 2014 general elections, Mehbooba Mufti secured a thumping victory over Mirza Mehboob Beg of the National Conference. Mehbooba Mufti is contesting from Anantnag seat for the third time now. During 2014 Lok Sabha elections, the results favored two parties equally by giving three seats each from the state to BJP and PDP (People’s Democratic Party). From Ladakh seat, BJP’s Thupstan Chhewang won in 2014 elections with a thin margin of just 36 votes.

The centre said that it will hire as many as 1,300 engineers for the valley’s first metro project, in a move that will boost infrastructure as well as employment. The project will hire across domains like architecture, telecommunications, traffic management, signal electronics and civil engineering, TOI<a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/srinagar-metro-to-absorb-1300-engineers-others/articleshow/70579874.cms"> reported</a>. This is good news for the heavily qualified yet unemployed youth in the state. According to the Directorate of Employment, around 150,000 postgraduates and doctorates in Jammu &amp; Kashmir are jobless. Cheaper metro fares The 25 km long metro will connect Indira Nagar to HMT Junction and Hamzuri Bagh to Osmanabad through Srinagar. The fares of this metro will also be cheaper at 1.5 times that of a bus — unlike other metros across the country. The metro project is expected to cost ₹5,108 crore — and nearly 21% of it will be funded by the centre. The Jammu and Kashmir government will also infuse equal amount into the project. Once operational, the government is expecting a return of investment of ₹146 crore from the project, in the first five years. “Revenue for the <keyword id="7960419" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Srinagar-Metro">Srinagar Metro</keyword> will mainly consist of farebox collection and non-fare box sources such as parking, taxes, advertisements, and property development,” TOI reported citing the Detailed Project Report (DPR) of Srinagar.

Indian government to ‘reorganise’ Jammu and Kashmir — plans to hire 1,300 engineers for its first Metro project

In a momentous and bold move, the government of India scrapped the <keyword id="405091" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Article-370">Article 370</keyword> that had granted special status to <keyword id="17605" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jammu-and-kashmir">Jammu and Kashmir</keyword>. Henceforth, Jammu and Kashmir will become a Union Territory with a legislative assembly. On Monday, August 5, 2019, the central government of India revoked article 370 that had given an exclusively special status to Jammu and Kashmir. The scrapping of the said article puts Jammu and Kashmir on par with the other states and union territories of the country. Scrapping of the article 370 also wipes out the provisions in the article 35(A) which had prevented the non-residents of Jammu and Kashmir from getting state jobs or own a property in the valley. Earlier, Article 35(A) had also given the J&amp;K state government the power to decide if an individual was a permanent resident of the state. Those individuals defined as non-residents by the legislature were prohibited from acquiring a property in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The said article had also barred the rights over property to the females in the state who get married to non-residents. As a result of the abolition of article 370, the residents of any other state can also buy a property in J&amp;K. Females will get back their right to property even while marrying an individual from outside the state. The present situation is expected to change the face of J&amp;K significantly inviting the setting up of manufacturing firms, businesses, and hotels in large numbers besides seeing the Indian citizens from other states buying properties in the valley.

Now anyone can purchase land in Jammu Kashmir after scraps article 370 and 35A
