The case had been scheduled for hearing on July 11. However, the court announced that the case would now be heard on August 2 and proceedings would be on a daily basis.

A five-judge bench led by Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud heard the case on Tuesday. Indian news website The Print reported that the case would be heard daily except Monday and Fridays.

The appeals filed against the articles revocation were withdrawn on Monday. However, the court said it would still proceed with the case if the litigants were not able to pursue. The appeals were filed in 2019, soon after the Modi government’s action.

The revocation of the article had led to the end of the special status of Indian Occupied Kashmir, a place contested by both Pakistan and India since partition in 1947.

The Modi government told the court on Monday that the change in the status of the disputed region led to “unprecedented development, progress, security and stability”.
