Multiple reputable sources, including The Hindu, Hindustan Times, and Greater Kashmir, consistently report that on 11 December 2023, the Supreme Court of India unanimously upheld the abrogation of Article 370. The claim is accurate and uncontradicted.

On 11 December 2023, a five-judge constitution bench of the Supreme Court of India unanimously upheld the constitutional validity of the 2019 abrogation of Article 370, which had stripped Jammu and Kashmir of its special status. The court also directed the restoration of statehood for Jammu and Kashmir and ordered that legislative assembly elections be held by September 2024. The verdict was delivered by Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud and four other judges, responding to a batch of petitions challenging the government's action.
