  • The Paradigm of Dialect After Abrogation of Article 370
    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 11 November 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 The Paradigm of Dialect After Abrogation of Article 370 Aastha MA Political Science School of Humanities Lovely Professional University Punjab, India Abstract The paper briefly discusses the integration of the state of Jammu and Kashmir with the Indian union through the Instrument of Accession. This agreement was signed between Maharaja Hari Singh and Governor-general of India. After this agreement Article 370 was implemented to the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The special status was given to the state. Although it was mentioned that this particular article 370 is transient temporary. And it is temporary in nature. This article gave many privileges to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. But after so long this article was abrogated on 5 August 2019 by our current Prime Minister Narendra Nath Modi. So this paper clearly explains the political debate regarding the abrogation of article 370. Keywords: Article 370, Abrogation, Jammu and Kashmir, Constitution, Political discourse, Legitimacy. Introduction Constitution of India is one of the fine legitimate documents of the country which encompasses all characteristics to govern the country and its nation peacefully for social resilience, human rights and protect people from severe crime. But when examining the international and national issue of protection concentrating north Indo-Pak border of Jammu and Kashmir, therefore, it can be recognized as the world’s complex risky area have severe complex problems which can solely be settled by the enactment of new laws to protect the security and peace. The intervention from Pakistan in Jammu and Kashmir area and newly from “China after the coronavirus condition, attack in the region of Ladakh”, “these serious problems are resuming which compel the matter complex to solve” (Neha, 2020).

  • The Illusion and Reality of Anti-Modi Wave in the Punjab 2019 General Election: a Note
    147 Singh & Mann: Illusion and Reality of Anti-Modi Wave The Illusion and Reality of anti-Modi Wave in the Punjab 2019 General Election: A Note Pritam Singh & Rajkamal S. Mann University of Oxford & Oxford Brookes University _______________________________________________________________ Punjab’s 2019 General Election results have some similarity in terms of response to the so-called Modi wave with the General Election results in 2014 but also substantial difference. During the 2014 elections, Punjab had demonstrated its political distinctiveness from the rest of India most spectacularly in the way it had defied the Modi wave then but in 2019, there is an appearance of the same political tendency repeating itself. But beneath that appearance, there is an underlying reality which tells a different story. During the 2014 elections, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which could not win even a single seat in any other state and lost deposits in most of the seats it contested, won four seats from Punjab and with massive margins of victory. So powerful was the AAP wave in Punjab that even the remaining seats it contested but did not win, its candidates polled lakhs of votes. The AAP performance in Punjab in 2014 seemed to indicate that it could have all India implications in terms of emerging as a non-Congress alternative to BJP (Singh, 2018). Within Punjab, it certainly raised expectations that a third alternative political current can emerge in opposition to the two main traditional rivals - Indian National Congress (INC) and the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) (Badal) (Singh, 2017). The non-democratic mode of functioning of Arvind Kejriwal, the head of the AAP, created deep splits in the party which dashed any hopes of the party emerging as an all India party.
