SRINAGAR, APRIL 4: After several MLAs expressed disapproval over political and administrative implications of the recent transfer of 48 JKAS officers by the Lieutenant Governor’s administration, LG Sinha on Friday said that all actions have been carried out strictly within the constitutional framework laid down in the J&K Reorganization Act, 2019.
Manoj Sinha said, ” I have never gone beyond my constitutional boundaries. I am fully aware of my jurisdiction and responsibilities. I have never violated them, nor will I ever do so.’
Pertinently, soon after the “emergency meeting” of the alliance partners called by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah ended NC’s Chief Spokesperson and MLA Zadibal, Tanvir Sadiq, accompanied by Congress leader and MLA Bandipora Nizam-ud-Din Bhat, addressed the media.
“Today’s meeting focused on key issues, including the Waqf Bill passed in Parliament. This Bill is against Muslims and minorities in the country, and we oppose it. Another critical issue was the mandate given by the people of Jammu and Kashmir to the NC-led government. We have once again demanded that the Government of India respect this mandate – it is non-negotiable. These two resolutions were unanimously passed today,” Tanvir Sadiq told reporters.
