here is ur answer

the state which enjoys the special status in the Indian constitution is

JAMMU AND KASHMIR

as per article 370 special status was given to JAMMU and Kashmir

The circumtstances under which Jammu and Kashmir acceeded to the

Indian union was very different from that of the other states. Unlike most

other states, the ruler Hari Singh wanted the state to remain independent

of both India and Pakistan.The state had a Muslim majority population

and was being ruled by Hindu ruler. At around the time when India got

independence, there was a popular movement, All Jammu and Kashmir

Muslim conference in the state led by Sheik Muhammad Abdullah, against

the Maharaja asking for greater represenation of Muslims in government

emplyoment and for a representative government among other things.

This movement became the National Conference and it had hindus and

Sikhs as its members.

Towards the end of 1947, the state began to face an external invasion on

its western borders by Razakars supported by Pakistan. With the attackers

nearing Srinagar, the Maharaja requested Indian forces for the defence. The

Governor General of India, however held that Indian forces would be available

only after the accession of Jammu and Kashmir to India. At the same time,

various options available regarding the future of the state, including being

autonomous were being widely discussed.

In January 1948, India took the case to the United Nations. However, the

case was not presented convincingly and the issue got transformed into a

India-Pakistan question. Meanwhile, Sheik Abdullah reached what is called

the Delhi Agreement, whereby Kashmiris would become full citizens of India

and have greater autonomy as well as powers compared to other states of

India. Most of the clauses of this agreement were intended to protect the

essential characteristics of the state found place in the Constitution in the

form of article 370.

At the same time, there was also an

economic divide in the state which

acquired a religious tone. The land

reforms in the state disposed many of

the

landlords who happened to be Hindus, of

land beyond the ceiling limits, while

the major beneficiaries of this

economic

programme happened to be Muslims.

During the period of 1950-1990 many

attempts were made by the central

government to reduce the autonomy of

the State and bring it in line with

other States.

hope the answer helps u :-)
