Government of J&K Should Pass Resolution Condemning the August 5, 2019 Decision: Sajad Lone
People’s Conference, Sajad Lone stated on Wednesday that the new government of Jammu and Kashmir should pass a resolution condemning the August 5, 2019 decision and the restrictions imposed on political leaders that day.
He acknowledged the presence of an elected government and urged political differences to be set aside, congratulating the National Conference and Omar Abdullah on his election as chief minister.
He insisted that the actions taken on August 5, 2019, were illegal and that they reject those actions, calling for the central government to return what it has taken.
Lone expressed support for the government, noting that history would be made with the first debate on Article 370 in the Assembly.He questioned why Jammu and Kashmir is the only region designated as a union territory and urged leaders to unite for the restoration of statehood.
He warned that failing to protest the August 5 decision would imply acceptance of the permanent loss of rights established in 2019.
Reflecting on the election campaigns, he remarked that claims regarding the restoration of Article 370 ceased once the elections ended, highlighting that the issue appeared to have been used solely for political gain.
He added that people have placed their hopes in the National Conference manifesto, expressing optimism that they can deliver, and noted that being in a union territory presents challenges for everyone.
