Answer 1

Answer:

Srinagar: Women hailing from Jammu and Kashmir who choose to marry men from outside the state do not lose their residency and inheritance rights under Article 35A of the Constitution, a top legal expert said on Tuesday.

Answer 2

Answer:

Many small organisations have formed to struggle for women's rights in Jammu and Kashmir. The 1947 accession of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) to India has led to conflict affecting the region's women. Kashmiri women, members of a patriarchal society, have had to fight inequality and discrimination and have been victims of violence by Indian security forces and militants.
