New Delhi: The Jammu and Kashmir Assembly on Wednesday passed a resolution asking the Centre to hold talks with elected representatives for the restoration of Article 370, which grants a special status to the Union Territory.
Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary moved the resolution for restoring the special status of the erstwhile state, which was revoked by the Centre on August 5, 2019. “That this legislative assembly reaffirms the importance of the special status and constitutional guarantees, which safeguarded the identity, culture, and rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, and expresses concern over their unilateral removal,” the resolution moved by Choudhary said, according to NDTV.
The resolution added that the process should safeguard both national unity and the aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
Soon after the resolution was introduced, BJP members, including the Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma, said it was not part of the listed business. “The Act has been passed by the biggest temple of democracy in the country (Parliament),” he added.
