The MHA, through its gazette notification, revoked its earlier order of October 31, 2019, relating to the imposition of the President's Rule in the region. The latest order dated October 13, 2024, revoked its previous order.
With the execution of this order, the new government led by Omar Abdullah has officially got a nod to be sworn in in the upcoming week.
Central rule was imposed in Jammu and Kashmir on October 31, 2019, after the abrogation of Article 370 on August 5, 2019. Prior to October 31, 2019.
The Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019 was passed by the Parliament on August 5, 2019, and on the same date the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir was divided into two -- J-K and Ladakh -- both of which were designated as Union Territories. The government had abrogated Article 370 which gave special status to the region, in a historic move.
