Srinagar, September 5 (KNS): Union Home Ministry has called the tweet of Omar Abdullah regarding curtailment of powers misleading and said there is no such proposal.
In a post on X, HMO said: Mr. @OmarAbdullah’s tweet is misleading and speculative in nature. There is not even an iota of truth, as there is absolutely no such proposal. The Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization Act of 2019 passed by the Parliament of India provides for notifying the transaction of business rules, and the same was notified in the year 2020."
"The people of J&K have wholeheartedly supported the efforts of the Government of India to bring in a democratically elected government through the historic free and fair election process in which the citizens participated enthusiastically.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel"he added.
Yesterday Omar Abdullah on X has posted "The BJP has clearly accepted defeat in J&K. Why else would the Chief secretary be assigned the duty to change transaction of business rules of the government to curtail the powers of the Chief minister / elected government and assign the same to the LG? This information has come to me from within the Secretariat. Officers would be well advised to resist any pressure to further disempower the incoming elected government." (X) (KNS)
