Harish Salve: Why Supreme Court is Unlikely to Void Article 370 Move

In an exclusive interview with Karan Thapar for The Wire, the leading lawyer says the Modi government's decision to change Jammu and Kashmir's constitutional status was in line with past precedents and that parliament was within its rights to act on behalf of the state assembly in demoting J&K to Union Territory status. But he said the Supreme Court could have acted faster in hearing complaints about the violation of rights.

Come here after listening to first five days of SC petitions on 370. One thing Salve does not clarify was the precedent mentioned ie change from Sadr-e-Riyasat to Governor was unanimously passed by J&K assembly. Process around 370 in 2019 seems to have one gaping hole - there was no state assembly. So it will be argued that state / people of J&Ks consent was not taken. It seems there was an instrument of accession and separately integration. The Maharaja only signed the first keeping J&K autonomous except in relation to defence, foreign affairs and communications. It is interesting to follow the SC proceedings, next hearing is 16 Aug 23, first 5 days are available on KZbin for those interested in court room dramas.

Mr Salve has solid grip on constitutional matters...hats off..disappointed from interviewer..though, since he so desperately wanted to hear from Mr Salve about unconstitutionality of this abrogation..we got to learn so much from Mr Salve..

[@himanshunalawade929]

Is this an Interview or a debate?? Why the hell the interviewer is not letting him complete the whole answer??

[@r.chellaram4396]

This is the truth about Karan Thapar and the rest of his clan they practice by deception

[@Arcmid]

Because Karan Thapar is cousin of so called historian Romila Thapar who along with her boyfriends has up to now been monontizing Marxist narrative of history which is full of lies and deceit

[@r.chellaram4396]

This is typical Karan Thapar that is why Modiji left him and dump him when he sense Karan's attitude.

Karan Thapar Nehru family ka member hai.. Iske baap ne Nehru khaandan mein shaadi ki hai.. Aur Karan Thapar ko Indian journalism mein laane mein Rajiv Gandhi ka haath tha

[@harishchotani2166]

Well said Salve ji of people of wide range biases and desires, expectations. The type of questions asked speak a clear inclination and putting words in the mouth of others. Karan ji, hearing between the lines tell the intent.

Brilliant Sr Advocate Harish SALVE JI AS ALWAYS 😃😃👍❤️❤️❤️💪🇮🇳♥️

[@shivrampandey3021]

What a interview. Gained a lot knowledge. It kis always good to hear Harish Salve Sir

[@AKP0002]

Wat an interview. Today i got to know that i dun knw the. 0.1 percent of 370 Wat a lawyer salve is and wat a journalist karan is A very very knowledgeable video Scope of this video is very wide very very wide we cannot limit to a certain things. Classic example of pure journalism and debate loved it

[@basantidhar1964]

Incomparable Salve How calm & composed while explaining the naunces of 370 Karan did a good job first time in his life

[@sunmayshukla]

Brilliance of Mr. Salve in presenting myriad of arguments in response to monotonous and one dimensional assertions by Mr. Thapar is indicative of the depth of his knowledge.

[@ranadem1972]

I hope Mr. Thapar can now lucidly explain the constitutional aspects of this to his friends. He made Mr. Salve repeat his points often

[@kidangupv1212]

This interview is for you. Karan is like a cook. He cooks for you. The cook does not eat his preparation as it is for customers. You are his customer.

[@VIKASH1627]

It appears that Mr. Thapar doesn't understand Mr. Salve unless Mr. Thapar himself interprets according to his wishes..

[@AndrewsrexAndrews]

All depends upon how is the teacher HS explanation

[@msitaramaraju]

I haven't heard a more clinical , incisive & persistent interviewer than Mr. Karan Thapar. He really lays out every single aspect of an argument and persists until he forces the interviewee to take a stand. Mr.Salve has responded to every question with clarity , calmness and extremely sound reasoning. What an enriching interaction to watch. So much to observe and learn.

[@Deshabakht]

Legal is also one of the profession. Harish salve is doing excellent with DNA of patriotism and Nationalism. My wholehearted wishes to Harish Salve.

[@2madhujha]

Karan pls ask questions n let the expert speak. Pls don’t interrupt so many times. Always a pleasure to hear Mr Salve

[@satyamahunta725]

He always think himself as a big bastard. Nonsense

[@Sanjay-lt9pw]

Salve did not give Karan the prized candy he thought he would get after every question he asked and every interruption he made. But I must admit, Karan did his homework well and prepared some thought provoking questions on constitutional law. And only a top notch lawyer like Salve could do complete justice with his balanced and nuanced replies.

[@venkateshnaik1436]

Limits well defined in initial dialogues. Good. Interviewer looks more knowledgeable than interviewed and his views are seconded hints on the purpose of the interview. It is good 370 is removed. How a part of india be with separate constitution and separate flag, restrictions in owning property in kashmir by other indians etc does not look reasonable. Union of states means union of states not union of states and a country type state. People do not feel 370 removal is incorrect except some belonging to kashmir. Salve sir's explanation gives clarity on the issue not disturbed by the interviewer instead corrects the views. Worth watching salve sir.

[@srinivasrao1470]

thankful to both karan ji and salve ji.......for their brilliant portrayal of their knowledge

Haris Salve, it is wonderfull hearing him LEGAL RESOLUTION

[@vaibhav_nitesh]

Let's appreciate the brilliant job done by Karan sir here, he is questioning and counter-questioning the top lawyer of the country on each article, clause and proviso with great understanding and attention. This is legendary stuff.

[@valipatel8561]

The country must listen this discussion. Very educational

[@nagatubein]

At 52 starting, Mr. Salve roster Karan, Karan wanted to escape ,but Mr Salve asked him to wait and gave, punches, slaps ,kicks on every part of his body and Karan put in familiar awakEd position. Well done salve sir.

[@manojsatapathy4122]

Karan ji tried very hard to make Salve ji speak what he wanted Salve ji to speak. Probably he forgot that he is speaking to Salve Ji. One such interview i could recall is Arfa interviewing Arif Khan Sahab. Learning of a life time. Thanks to Karan ji for bringing this out.

[@utkarshpandey5699]

Coming after 4 years on this video just to see how true Salve was when he propunded that the Supreme Court isn't likely to strike down Art 370 revocation bill. Kudos to Salve for his brilliant insight and sharp edge interpretation skills which he showed while arguing this case before the SC.

[@TKD1982]

Karan's usual tactics to stand his preoccupied agenda have been blown away simply.

[@rengasamyjeyaraman1257]

This is an excellent interview to watch on two counts. First we can have an legal, logical, satisfying aspects of the subject under discussion from respected learned Senior council Harish Salve by his calm but assertive reply. The other one is that the questions asked by the brazen, callus, chicken headed Karan Thapar put more attraction to the facts put forth by the guest.

There are some special provisions formulated for Nagaland within Indian constitution doesn't mean that separate constitution is provided to Nagaland.
