On August 5, 2019, the Government of India revokes Article 370 of the Constitution, which grants special status to Jammu and Kashmir, and bifurcates the state into two union territories: Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court hears a plea on August 8 for the restoration of Jammu and Kashmir's statehood, court officials say on Tuesday. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
