Whenever Article 370 is talked about, the mention of Article 35A also arises. We cannot find any article named as Article 35A in the Indian constitution but it was part of it. Actually it was introduced through a presidential order of 1954.
Article 35A is about Permanent residents of Jammu & Kashmir and gave special privileges to them.
The special rights there in 35A were rights that were already there for residents of J&K during Raja Hari Singh’s rule.
Original text of the Article 35A
35A. Saving of laws with respect to permanent residents and their rights:-
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Constitution, no existing law in force in the State of Jammu and Kashmir, and no law hereafter enacted by the Legislature of the State,-
(a) defining the classes of persons who are, or shall be, permanent residents of the State of Jammu. and Kashmir; or
(b) conferring on such permanent residents any special rights and privileges or imposing upon other persons any restrictions as respects:-
(i) employment under the State Government;
(ii) acquisition of immovable property in the State;
(iii) settlement in the State; or
(iv) right to scholarships and such other forms of aid as the State Government may provide, shall be void on the ground that it is inconsistent with or takes away or abridges any rights conferred on the other citizens of India by any provision of this Part

In short it defined Permanent resident and said that anyone who is not resident of J&K cannot do a job under services of state government, cannot purchase a property in J&K etc.
It was also the provision that if any resident women marries any non resident women then she loses her residential ship but if any Men marries a woman of another state then he will not and the married women also become permanent resident of J&K.
Article 35A was a byproduct of Article 370 and they both were repealed together in 2019.
