The article is drafted in Part XXI of the Constitution: Temporary, Transitional and Special Provisions . The Constituent Assembly of Jammu and Kashmir, after its establishment, was empowered to recommend the articles of the Indian constitution that should be applied to the state or to abrogate the Article 370 altogether . After the J&K Constituent Assembly later created the state's constitution and dissolved itself without recommending the abrogation of Article 370, the article was deemed to have become a permanent feature of the Indian Constitution . </P> <P> The state of Jammu and Kashmir's original accession, like all other princely states, was on three matters: defence, foreign affairs and communications . All the princely states were invited to send representatives to India's Constituent Assembly, which was formulating a constitution for the whole of India . They were also encouraged to set up constituent assemblies for their own states . Most states were unable to set up assemblies in time, but a few states did, in particular Saurashtra Union, Travancore - Cochin and Mysore . Even though the States Department developed a model constitution for the states, in May 1949, the rulers and chief ministers of all the states met and agreed that separate constitutions for the states were not necessary . They accepted the Constitution of India as their own constitution . The states that did elect constituent assemblies suggested a few amendments which were accepted . The position of all the states (or unions of states) thus became equivalent to that of regular Indian provinces . In particular, this meant that the subjects available for legislation by the central and state governments was uniform across India . </P>
