He incisively analyses the implications and consequences of the article for the constitutional democracy of the state and the nation.From Jammu and Kashmirs accession to India in 1947 to the various negotiations thereafter; Sheikh Abdullahs arrest to the framing of the Constitution of Jammu and Kashmir and the replacement of Sadar-i-Riyasat, this book impeccably documents the little-known constitutional history of the state.
