Lawyers of the Jammu Bar association suspended the work in the courts on Thursday against the “anti-people” decision, Bar members said.
They strongly condemned the imposition of Property Tax, saying the people of JandK are already reeling under financial distress owing to the “wrong policies” of the administration.
The LG administration is making repeated assaults on the people of J-K, they said, appealing it to immediately withdraw the decision.
