J&K National Panthers Party vs The Union Of India & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of amendments to the Jammu and Kashmir Representation of the People Act, 1957, specifically Section 3, which postpones the delimitation of constituencies until after the first census post-2026. The Court held that such postponement undermines the democratic principle of representation, as it fails to reflect demographic changes in the constituencies. The Court ultimately ruled in favor of the appellant, emphasizing the necessity of timely delimitation to ensure fair electoral representation.
