Jammu and Kashmir have been a territorial dispute between India and Pakistan since decades ago and yet until today, there are still unresolved conflicts between the states. Not only that, as China also shares the same border, it has been ‘sucked’ into the dispute as well. As China and Pakistan have a strong bilateral relation especially in terms of economy, the relation has been threatening India’s sovereignty over Jammu and Kashmir. There are many recent news which further exacerbate the situations like the India’s revoke of Article 370 and Article 35A which grant various special status of Jammu and Kashmir to India’s rejections of the recent joint statement between China-Pakistan which India considers as meddling with their internal affairs and also the rejection of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) which India is against of. This paper will further explore on Article 370 and Article 35A, Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Bill, 2019, CPEC and the June 2020 border standoff between China and India in Galwan Valley which still continues to this date.
