Maxim Allegans Contraria non est Audiendus, Junadagh, Jammu ve Keşmir

Abstract

5 Ağustos 2019 tarihinde Hindistan hükümeti, Jammu ve Keşmir eyaletine kayda değer siyasi özerklik kazandıran Anayasanın 370. Maddesinin iptal edildiğini duyurdu. 370. Madde, Jammu ve Keşmir’in dışişleri, savunma ve haberleşme dışındaki tüm konularda kendi anayasasına, ayrı bir bayrağa ve bağımsızlığına sahip olmasını sağlamakta idi. Hindistan hükümeti, Jammu ve Keşmir’in Birleşmiş Milletler Güvenlik Konseyi tarafindan tartışmalı bölge olarak tanımlamasına rağmen, Hindistan Anayasasının 370. Maddesinin Birleşmiş Milletler SözleşmesI`nin 2.7 Maddesi kapsaminda Hindistan’ın bir iç meselesi olduğunu iddia etmektedir. Bu makale, Birleşmiş Milletler dekolonizasyon sistemi içerisinde Jammu ve Keşmir sorununu, Hindistan’ın Junagadh’ın Eyaleti`nin dekolonizasyon süreci ile mukayeseli olarak inceleyerek, maxim allegans contraria non est audiendus prensibi çerçevesinde Hindistan`in Jammu ve Keşmir icin uluslararasi bir yükümlülüğünün olup olmadığını analiz etmektedir.

Abstract

On 5 August 2019, the Indian Government announced the revocation of Article 370 of the Constitution, which grants the state of Jammu and Kashmir considerable political autonomy. Article 370 allowed Jammu and Kashmir to have its own constitution, a separate flag and independence over all matters except foreign affairs, defence and communications. The Government says this is an internal affair of India, subject to Article 2.7 of the UN Charter even if the United Nations Security Council defines Jammu and Kashmir as disputed territory. This Article examines the dispute of Jammu and Kashmir within the UN system of decolonization, and analyzes whether there exits any international legal obligation for India arising from the decolonization of Junagadh for Jammu and Kashmir within the principle of maxim allegans contraria non est audiendus.
