What is the significance of the expiration period mentioned in this context, with respect to laws made by Parliament for Jammu and Kashmir?
The expiration period mentioned in this context refers to the time limit during which certain laws or provisions made by Parliament for Jammu and Kashmir will remain in effect. Once this period expires, any law that Parliament would not have been competent to make without the provisions of this article shall cease to have effect. However, these laws will continue to apply to things done or omitted before the expiration of the said period. The significance of this expiration period is that it sets a temporal boundary for the application and validity of certain laws specific to Jammu and Kashmir made by Parliament, ensuring that they are not permanently binding without further constitutional amendments or legislative actions.
