APRIL 5: On Saturday, People’s Conference Chief and MLA Handwara Sajad Lone severely reprimanded the stand of incumbent Government on reservation policy in High Court.
Taking to social networking site X, Lone said, “In an affidavit filed before the J&K High Court yesterday by J&K Government in the case of Zahoor Ahmed Bhat and others vs UT of J&K, pertaining to RESERVATIONS, J&K Government has submitted that the petition is frivolous and sought its outright dismissal.”
He added, “Nowhere has the government mentioned the formation of a sub-committee on reservations. This is a legal mystery.”
Lone further said, “Seems the Government is not taking its own committee serious enough to merit a mention in its legal affidavit.”
