Additionally, the J&K Reorganisation Act 2019, which followed the abrogation of Article 370, extended all central laws, rights, privileges, duties, and obligations to Jammu and Kashmir. It also led to the repeal of several regressive laws, including those restricting inheritance rights for daughters and limiting land ownership and job opportunities based on residency. Through these changes, the Act sought to ensure greater equality and integration within the region.
