| NPP seeks President's intervention for ensuring civil rights in J&K | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 3: Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party's Chief Patron Prof. Bhim Singh today appealed to the President of India, Ramnath Kovind seeking his urgent intervention in J&K which is under President's Rule, this day to ensure that all fundamental rights to the residents of J&K are granted in accordance to the Constitution of India.
He said that after the removal of Article 35-A in the Indian Constitution by the President all fundamental rights guaranteed in Chapter-III in the Indian Constitution stand applicable to every resident of Jammu and Kashmir. It was only Article 35-A which President had applied in J&K in May 1954 which had curtailed the fundamental rights to the Indian citizens in J&K.
Prof.Bhim Singh said that no person can be detained by any government official/ police in Jammu and Kashmir now under the Detention Law, PSA, which evaporated and fundamental rights turned in favour of every resident of J&K.
NPP Supremo, a Sr. Advocate in the Supreme Court who has been agitating for nearly four decades in the court for the enforcement of all fundamental rights to the residents of J&K has expressed deep shock on the draconian behaviour of J&K officials /police by arresting/detaining hundreds of citizens of India residing in J&K without any authority of law.
Prof.Bhim Singh referred to the story published in Tribune this morning that, 'Kin of detained politicians and Rate terror rocks VVIP prisons in Kashmir' which are eye-opening stories about the new pages of human rights as are being practiced today in the State of J&K which is an integral part of Union of India. According to the stories in Tribune that, "One Monday morning, family members of some of the politicians, imprisoned at Centaur Lake View Hotel along the Dal Lake, had assembled outside the hotel. They waited anxiously to meet their kin but were informed by security personnel at the gate to come either on Wednesday or Sunday. The families had to return home dejected." |
