NEW DELHI: The Jammu and Kashmir Government today opposed in the Supreme Court the contention of the Centre that the State was “disowning” the minutes of joint meeting on setting up of the Minority Commission.
A bench comprising Chief Justice Dipak Misra and justices A M Khanwilkar and D Y Chandrachud considered and allowed the request of the State Government to defer the hearing by four weeks on the plea that raised issues like whether majority Muslims can avail benefits, meant for minorities in the State.
