EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, June 16: President, J&K National Panthers Party (JKNPP) and senior Advocate, Supreme Court, Prof Bhim Singh, has given an open invitation to the leadership of all nationalist, secular and democratic political parties in J&K to sit together.
Prof Singh said the joint meeting should decide as to what needs to be done to save history, geography, cultural identity of all regions of the erstwhile state including Jammu, Kashmir, Ladakh as well as Gilgit-Baltistan and other areas under Chinese illegal occupation in Ladakh sector.
Bhim Singh has conveyed a message to the leadership of National Conference, PDP and the leadership of some national parties which are active in J&K in a straight way that we must sit together, talk together and save the J&K with its history, cultural and linguistic identity the way it acceded to the Union of India on October 26,
Singh challenged the entire leadership of the country including lawyers, men from the judiciary or history to stand face to face with this ordinary student of law and answer the questions including the one with India may face before the International Court of Justice someday--has Indian government or Indian Parliament any power to abrogate/amend/ change or destroy any provision in the Instrument of Accession signed by Ruler, Maharaja Hari Singh? The Instrument of Accession vis-à-vis Jammu and Kashmir was never changed, deleted, removed by the Constituent Assembly. It was the only Constituent Assembly which had constitutional authority to change, amend or remove any provision in the Constituent Assembly signed by Maharaja Hari Singh and approved by the then Governor-General of India Lord Mountbatten. |
