Misleading narratives being spread to justify abrogation of Art 370: Yousf Tarigami

 Dec 28 (KNS): Senior CPI(M) leader Mohamamd Yousuf Tarigami Thursday said that misleading  narratives are persistently being propagated to make people of Jammu and Kashmir realize about the benefits of the abrogation of the special constitutional position of Jammu and Kashmir under Article 370, which was taken away by the Centre on August 05, 2019.
Referring to the statement of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha that implementation  of  Anand Marriage Act to Jammu and Kashmir became possible only because of the abrogation of article 370, Tarigami said that there has been a long list of amendments made to article 370, allowing the application of Central laws to Jammu and Kashmir. 
He said the passage of GST in 2017 by the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly was one of such instances in recent times, and added there were 42 constitution (Application to J&K) orders extending the scope of central intervention  which were not envisaged at the time of the adoption of Article 370.
Additionally, the extent of the misuse of Article 370 to encroach on the state’s power can be seen from one of the measures taken in July 1986.
The President issued an order under Article 370, extending Article 249 of the Constitution to the state. This empowered the Parliament to legislate on matters in the state list based on a resolution from the Rajya Sabha, Tarigami said.
Pertinently, it received approval from the centrally-appointed Governor, Jagmohan. Such overriding of the state list is unique to Jammu and Kashmir and isn’t applicable to other states, he held. (KNS)
