Bifurcation: Divided the state of Jammu and Kashmir into two Union Territories:
Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir: Comprising the territories of the existing state of J&K, excluding Ladakh. It was to have a legislative assembly and a Council of Ministers.

Council of Ministers for J&K: Mandated a Council of Ministers headed by a Chief Minister to aid and advise the Lieutenant Governor.
Lieutenant Governor: Established the office of Lieutenant Governor for both UTs, with significant powers, especially in J&K where certain subjects are outside the purview of the elected assembly.
High Court: Ensured the existing High Court of Jammu and Kashmir would serve as the High Court for both UTs.
Extension of Central Laws: Extended 106 Central laws to the UTs of J&K and Ladakh, while 153 State laws were repealed and 166 State laws were modified.
