Article 370 Verdict Live Updates: The Indian Supreme Court on Monday (Dec 11) will deliver its judgement on the central government's decision to scrap Article 370 of the Indian Constitution that guaranteed special status to the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir. The 2019 landmark decision had split the state into two union territories—Jammu and Kashmir.  A five-judge Constitution bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud would deliver the verdict. The other members of the bench are Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul, Sanjiv Khanna, B R Gavai and Surya Kant. The apex court reserved its verdict on the matter on September 5 after a 16-day hearing.  During the 16-day-long hearing, the government's counsels had defended the move to revoke the special status, while the petitioners argued against the Narendra Modi government's unilateral move, saying that the power of the Constituent Assembly were vested in the Jammu and Kashmir legislature after it was dissolved in 1957.
