Lawyers Strike: Prof Singh urges J&K Governor’s intervention
12/13/2011 10:23:25 PM
EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu Dec 13: Chairman National Panthers Party (NPP), Prof Bhim Singh has urged NN Vohra, the Governor of J&K seeking his urgent intervention to resolve the situation created by decision of the J&K government to shift registration of documents from the judiciary to the revenue department to undermine the credibility of the judiciary.
In his communication addressed to Prof Bhim Singh expressed surprise that the echelons of power in J&K have not cared a bit of the fact that thousands of lawyers have been on strike for the past 20 days, yet the government has not realized the gravity of the situation. “The lawyers’ fraternity is the backbone of democracy and the only security of the fundamental and civil rights of the citizens in democracy, ignoring their voice, logic, reasoning and suggestions amounts to an assault on the civil society, he said.
The NPP Chief said that failure on the part of the government to resolve the legitimate issue which has very rightly and wisely projected by the Bar Associations in J&K deserves to be considered without any delay.
He said that at one hand the NC-Congress combine has been asking for greater autonomy and on the other hand the Chief Minister is pleading to introduce the corruption-ridden systems prevalent in the rest of the country against the will and wishes of the people.
The Panthers Party Chief urged the Governor of J&K to invoke Section 92 of the J&K Constitution without any delay.
