The National Conference (NC), which made its response submitted to the J&K Delimitation Commission public on Wednesday, has asked the panel “to stop the delimitation exercise forthwith pending final adjudication and disposal of the batch of writ petitions questioning the constitutional validity of the Jammu and Kashmir Re–organisation Act 2019”.
“We have all along taken the consistent stand from the very first date the exercise violates the fundamental canons of ethics of the Constitution, its values and morality and above all the constitutional propriety,” reads the note submitted by the NC’s Members of Parliament (MPs).
Farooq Abdullah, Mohamad Akbar Lone and Hasnain Masoodi are among the five associate members of the Commission, besides two MPs of the BJP.
