Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 5: Prof. Bhim Singh, Chief Patron of J&K National Panthers Party who is also senior elected Executive Member of Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) in New Delhi has urged Ramnath Kovind, the President of India for his immediate intervention to ensure that rule of law returns back in Jammu and Kashmir from the ghost rule. He urged the President of India pleading for his intervention since the Lieutenant Governor has no executive power to deal with the legal or political matters. He expressed surprise that some senior politicians of recognized political parties have completed three months at different detention centres in Kashmir which include Centaur Hotel, Guest Houses in Kashmir Valley. The 31 mainstream politicians from different parties have been kept in Centaur Hotel for three months. The Detention Law does not allow confinement of any person (even non-citizen) to accede beyond 90 days and all the Kashmiri prisoners who have been in detention without trial or FIR cannot be lodged any longer under the laws. It is interesting that the Govt. of India has to clear a hotel bill of Rs.2.63 crores in Kashmir for looking after 31 political prisoners till this day. Prof. Bhim Singh has urged the President of India that no person can be detained without trial for more than 90 days (three months) and continuation of detention in Govt. hotels or in private houses shall be illegal, unconstitutional which shall amount to violation of fundamental rights as Chapter-III on fundamental rights in the Indian Constitution is applicable in Jammu and Kashmir since August 5, 2019 the day President of India abolished Article 35-A which was only a Presidential Order issued on May 14, 1954 by the then President of India.
