The Supreme Court of India has upheld the Modi government's decision to revoke Jammu and Kashmir's special status under Article 370. The court also instructed the Election Commission to conduct elections in the region by September 30, 2024. The verdict was welcomed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP President JP Nadda, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and RSS leaders, who saw it as a step towards national unity. However, Congress leaders, National Conference vice-president Omar Abdullah, PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti, and Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav expressed disappointment with the court's decision.
