Recently, India woke up to witness another albeit very differently and various instance of its tryst with destiny. As Wednesday it came to an end, on the very stroke of the midnight hour, when the world completely slept, here to understand that the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) and Ladakh awakened to a new future. Thus India is now officially has one state less and two Union Territories more – J&K and Ladakh which means that India now has 28 states and 9 union territories.

The Union Territory of Ladakh will basically not have a legislative assembly and will be directly be governed by the Home Ministry at the Centre through an appointed Lieutenant-Governor, like the one we have at Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It is also understood that a former civil servant, Radha Krishna Mathur, took an oath of office as the Lieutenant-Governor of Ladakh.

Jammu and Kashmir will at the same time have its own elected legislature and government, presided over by the appointed Lieutenant-Governor which is more or less like the Delhi and Puducherry models. GC Murmu who was a former bureaucrat from PM Modi’s home state of Gujarat, has here  sworn in as the first lieutenant governor of the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

On August 5, the Narendra Modi government has very firmly made the monumental decision to change the status of Jammu and Kashmir. Through a strong Presidential Order, the government declared that Article 370 would cease to be completely operative, and specifically overrode a previous order that actually has made Article 35A a part of the Constitution of India, thereby ending the special status that was accorded to the region.

Incidentally it is understood that the new UTs have come into existence on the National Unity Day, marked as the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India’s first home minister and a strong and very powerful freedom fighter.

The government is finally looking to take this opportunity to ramp up infrastructure, increase  investment and tourism opportunities in the region, as well as completely  integrating it in essence with the rest of India and also to understand  as J&K has long been marked with separatist fires, fueled in turn by the special status enjoyed by it.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah has also approved the proposal to pay all other allowances, that’s basically including children education allowance, fixed medical allowance, transport allowance, LTC, to these employees.

Here to understand that the annual financial implication of 7th CPC allowances like children education allowance, hostel allowance, transport allowance, LTC, fixed medical allowance etc. in respect of 4.5 lakh Government employees of existing State of Jammu & Kashmir that basically would ne sum around Rs 4800 crore tentatively reported by the statesman.

Finally, the Modi government had passed the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization Bill for the year 2019, in Parliament in the month of August, and had also announced that all the financial facilities that are supposed to be given to the employees of other UTs – solely as per the recommendations of 7th Central Pay Commission – that will soon be extended to the employees of Jammu & Kashmir and to the employees of Ladakh.
