Winding up of seven State Commissions in J&K arbitrary, illegal: Harsh Dev 11/15/2019 9:58:01 PM Early Times Report Jammu, Nov 15: Asserting that a serious illegality had been committed by the State govt. in winding up seven state commissions functional in the state prior to October 31, 2019, Harsh Dev Singh Chairman-JKNPP & former Education Minister today said that J&K administration stood exposed for its hermeneutical imbecility and intellectual bankruptcy. He said that GAD's order dated October 23, 2019 disbanding the seven state commissions was not only unlawful but violative of the order and clarifications issued by the President of India through Difficulties Removal Order. Expressing dismay over the appallingly whimsical move of the State government in winding up the said seven statutory bodies, Singh observed that the said order had brazenly defied and circumvented provisions of J&K Reorganization Act and the appurtenant Removal of Difficulties order 2019. He was addressing a press conference in Jammu today. Elucidating his point, Harsh Dev Singh said that Removal of Difficulties order 2019 which was published by the GoI in Gazette extra-ordinary on October 30, 2019 had issued several clarifications for Removal of Difficulties in the implementation of the Reorganization Act which included a reference to the statutory bodies created and operational prior to the passing of the Reorganization Act. He revealed that clause (17) of the said order categorically stated that all such bodies which were functional before the appointed date i.e. 31st October, 2019 shall continue to function till they were replaced by new bodies constituted under the new rules and all proceedings undertaken by them even after the appointed date shall be deemed to be valid and operative. The relevant clause reads "Any authority constituted under any law in the existing State of Jammu and Kashmir immediately in force before the appointed day shall be deemed to have been constituted under the corresponding provisions of the Central laws applicable to the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir and the Union Territory of Ladakh.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
