How has this amendment impacted the autonomy of Jammu and Kashmir?
The amendment has significantly impacted the autonomy of Jammu and Kashmir by revoking its special status under Article 370, which had granted the state certain political and economic exemptions. With this change, all provisions of the Indian constitution now apply to Jammu and Kashmir without any modifications or exceptions. This essentially means that the state's autonomy has been reduced, as it is now subjected to the same legal framework as other states in India.
