Jammu and Kashmir Domicile Law

The abrogation of J-K’s special status last August meant that the category of permanent residents or state subjects in J-K, and the rights associated with it, was discarded. The legal shields that prevented Indian citizens who weren’t permanent residents of J-K from owning land and immovable property, contesting and voting in state and panchayat elections, and securing government jobs were removed. This was the realisation of the ruling party’s long-held designs for J-K. 

So, why did the Narendra Modi government, eight months later, create a new category of J-K residents to carry on with its post abrogation plans in J-K?

The reasons are manifold. In fact, the order which was subsequently amended to reserve all jobs for J-K domiciles is not a roll back, it’s a big step forward towards complete assimilation of J-K.

As the first implications of the abrogation of J-K’s special status started to appear, people in Jammu’s Hindu-dominated districts who had overwhelmingly supported the move across party lines demanded a mechanism primarily to secure government jobs for local residents. The new political outfit, Apni party, formed by a group of former ministers, legislators and activists from various parties with New Delhi’s blessings, too had been demanding an arrangement to reserve government jobs and land rights for the original inhabitants, or state subjects as they are called. This group, bound by their mutual acceptance of the abrogation of the special status, is being projected as the replacement for the pre-August 5, 2019 pro-India political structure, especially in Kashmir and the Muslim-majority Peerpanchal and Chenab Valley regions of Jammu. 

The concern about jobs stemmed primarily from the fact that J-K’s Hindu population, which is around 28 percent, has historically had the larger portion of the pie in the local government structure (when compared with the percentage of their population). They were concerned that once competition for government jobs was opened to all Indians, they would lose out. The ruling dispensation could not ignore this constituency, which is its only support base in the erstwhile state. The new political party in Kashmir too needed this concession to stay relevant. It was also an easy demand to meet. 

The opening of government jobs in J-K to non-state subjects is neither a priority for New Delhi nor integral to its goals behind the August 5, 2019 decision. While this  job reservation ploy may benefit, to a limited extent, the state subjects, its scope is temporary and will lose its meaning on its own once this new domicile registry swells with new entrants and the post August 5 order is fully established. The introduction of a separate domicile category for J-K residents, however, is essential to driving forward the agenda that led to the August 5 decision. 

There has been apprehension that large numbers of Indian Muslims, faced with communal polarisation across the country, might want to migrate to Muslim-majority J-K for security. In fact, as the challenge to the now-abrogated Article 35A (Permanent Resident or State Subject law) was being heard in the Supreme Court and its implications on the ground were being assessed, a former high court judge had told a visiting team from Delhi that once the bar on the purchase of land and immovable property, participation in assembly and local elections, and entry into J-K government jobs on non-state subjects was lifted, large numbers of Indian Muslims, feeling insecure in their native places, could migrate to J-K.  Sources say that an elaborate survey of non-state subject migrant workers, particularly in the valley, that was subsequently done too had revealed that a majority of them were Muslim. This possible concentration of Indian Muslims in J-K would substantially undo the ruling party’s aim behind the abrogation of the special status. The introduction of the new domicile category  may be designed to help contain this “unwanted” influx. 

While the door of entry into J-K was kicked open on August 5, 2019, the creation of a domicile category means there’s now a doorman to regulate the flow as per the wishes and tastes of the state. 

Unlike the state subject law, which granted the authority to verify permanent residentship on the deputy commissioner, who heads the district administration, and thus ensured multiple levels of checks, the process to issue the domicile certificate has little checks and balances and the power to grant it is given to a junior bureaucrat (tehsildar).

Covid19

Coronaviruses typically affect the respiratory system.

Coronaviruses usually cause the common cold, though they can be responsible for more severe illnesses.

Over the past 80 years, scientists have found that these viruses can infect mice, rats, dogs, cats, turkeys, horses, pigs, and cattle. Sometimes, these animals transmit the viruses to humans.

Most recently, authorities identified a new coronavirus outbreak in China that has now reached other countries. The virus is called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and it can cause COVID-19

What to know about coronaviruses

Coronaviruses typically affect the respiratory tracts of birds and mammals, including humans. Doctors associate them with the common cold, bronchitis, pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). These viruses can also affect the gut.

In this article, we explain the different types of human coronavirus, their symptoms, and how people transmit them. We also focus on three particularly dangerous diseases caused by coronaviruses: COVID-19, SARS, and Middle East respiratory syndrome 

What is a coronavirus?

Covering the mouth when sneezing can help stop the spread of coronaviruses.

Researchers first identified a coronavirus in 1937, isolating one that was responsible for a type of bronchitis in birds that had the potential to devastate poultry stocks.

Scientists found evidence of human coronaviruses in the 1960s, in the noses of people with the common cold.

Human coronaviruses that are particularly prevalent include 229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1.

The name “coronavirus” comes from the crown-like projections on their surfaces. “Corona” in Latin means “halo” or “crown.”

Among humans, coronavirus infections most often occur during the winter months and early spring.

COVID-19

In 2019, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) started monitoring the outbreak of a new coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. Authorities first identified the virus in Wuhan, China.

Since then, the virus has spread to nearly every country, leading the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare a pandemic.

The new coronavirus has been responsible for millions of infections globally, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths. The United States has seen the highest number of these deaths.

The first people with COVID-19 had links to an animal and seafood market. This suggests that animals initially transmitted the virus to humans. Then, people with no connections to the market developed the disease, confirming that humans can pass the virus to each other.

Most people who get COVID-19 will have a mild form of the disease. According to the WHO, around 80% of people who get COVID-19 will recover without needing hospitalization.

The remaining 20% become seriously ill and develop difficulty breathing.

Some groups are more at risk of severe disease, including older adults and people with underlying medical concerns, including high blood pressure, heart and lung problems, diabetes, and cancer.

The mortality rate varies between countries. In the U.S., the death rate is around 6%.

According to the CDC, children are not at higher risk of COVID-19 than adults.

Pregnant women appear to have the same risk of COVID-19 as other adults. However, during pregnancy, women have a higher risk of severe illness from viruses that are similar to SARS-CoV-2 and influenza.

The CDC also reborn to women with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 are put into isolation.
