SRINAGAR, June 26(KNS): Chairman of the Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) and former Chief Minister Jammu and Kashmir Ghulam Nabi Azad, has urged the central government to allow Eng Rashid to take his oath as a Member of Parliament.

In his statement, Azad emphasised, “As Eng Rashid sahib secures a decisive victory in the Lok Sabha with overwhelming public support, the government should acknowledge this mandate and promptly allow him to take the oath. His constituents in the four districts of Kashmir deserve representation without delay. If the law permitted his candidacy, it should equally permit his full participation in parliamentary proceedings.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel”

Azad further said, “His family and followers have been in pain for the last five years as Eng Rashid remains in jail. I must appreciate his two sons who campaigned for their father and ensured his victory in the Lok Sabha elections.

People have voted in large numbers, showing their belief in the Indian Constitution. Therefore, the government must release him and allow him to take his oath, considering these factors.(KNS)
