Kashmir Petitions Hearing: What Did the Supreme Court Tell Centre?

In this episode of The Big Story, we talk about the SC directions and the arrests and detentions in Kashmir.

At least 10 petitions challenging the validity of the Modi government's decision to abrogate Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir were up for hearing at the Supreme Court on Wednesday. And the Chief Justice of India, in a big development, has ordered that these cases will be heard in the first week of October by a five-judge bench.

That's not all. The Supreme Court has sought a response from the government within seven days on the issue of media freedom.
