JAMMU, July 10: Chief patron, National Panthers’ Party (NPP), Prof Bhim Singh today said that reorganization of Jammu and Kashmir was the only way out to seek final resolution of the problems of Refugees and Migrants of 1947, 1965, 1971 & 1999.
“Reorganization is the only answer to the age-old discrimination and unequal treatment doled out to Jammu region”, he asserted and sought creation of separate Legislative Assemblies, separate Public Service Commission, separate Service Selection Boards and separate Budgets for both Jammu and Kashmir regions.
Singh was addressing a conference of civil society, intellectuals and prominent citizens of Jammu to discuss the current political situation in the State and to further deliberate upon the much needed initiatives required to be taken so as to ensure delivery of justice to the people of Jammu Pradesh.
The meeting was also attended by Harshdev Singh MLA and chairman JKNPP, Balwant Singh Mankotia MLA and president NPP, Yashpal Kundal MLA and general secretary, Syed Mohd Rafiq Shah MLC and president, Young Panthers besides other senior leaders of the party.
Rejecting the demands of Autonomy and Self-Rule, Prof Bhim Singh said that such slogans have no relevance except exploiting the innocent Kashmiries for political mileage. He further sought amendment in Article 370 of the Constitution so as to empower Parliament to legislate on the subjects incorporated in the Central list of Schedule-VII of Indian Constitution.
Civil society members who attended the meeting included retired Judge Pavitar Singh, Prof Hari Om, Narayan Singh, Jagdish Singh Jamwal, Goverdhan Singh Jamwal, RS Jamwal, DIG (retd) Anoop Singh Slathia, besides others.
