Srinagar, Oct 18 (KNS): People’s Democratic Party (PDP) leader and legislator from Pulwama, Waheed Para has criticised Omar Abdullah's recent resolution on statehood, calling it a ratification of the August 5, 2019 decision that revoked Jammu and Kashmir's special status.
Para stated that the resolution, which focuses solely on the demand for statehood, represents a significant shift from earlier positions, particularly the promise to restore Article 370.
He expressed concerns that the resolution marks a setback for the political agenda that sought votes on the basis of reinstating Article 370.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
"Omar Abdullah's first resolution on statehood is nothing less than ratification of the August 5th, 2019 decision. No resolution on Article 370 and scaling down the demand to mere statehood is a huge setback, especially after seeking votes on the promise of restoring Article 370," he said in a post on X. (KNS)
