AP demands statehood, domicile rights for jobs, land, release of detenues

Srinagar, Sep 30 (UNI) Demanding restoration of statehood, domicile rights for jobs and land, release of detenues, the Apni Party (AP) also emphasized on the need for zero tolerance of human rights in Jammu and Kashmir.
A spokesman for the AP this afternoon that a resolution was on Wednesday passed by the party leaders, chaired by president Syed Altaf Bukhari here.

However, the AP resolution was silent over Article 370 which was abrogated by the centre on August 5, 2019 when all mainstream leaders, including three former chief ministers were detained and thousands of security forces rushed and deployed here to maintain law and order.

He said the meeting resolved to raise and pursue the restoration of statehood for Jammu and Kashmir which is an essential prerequisite for mitigation of sufferings of the people. People in J&K are facing immense miseries due to lack of effective governance which is never possible in a Governor’s rule. Hence the government of India should not delay the fulfillment of its promise made by the country’s top leadership in the house of Parliament and restore the Statehood to J&K at an earliest.

Since the people in J&K are anxious for restoration of Statehood and feel dejected in absence of a popular government which is imperative for any democratic set up, the meeting also resolved to remind the government of India about initiation of a much needed electoral process.

The resolution said that while there is still a need to address some anomalies in Domicile law for jobs so as to make it immune to any judicial review, the meeting resolved to pursue vigorously for the Domicile rights on land for the permanent residents of Jammu and Kashmir.

The meeting also resolved that there should be a comprehensive Domicile law for the permanent residents of J&K so as to safeguard their proprietary rights of land and immovable property. It was unanimously resolved that Apni party will raise and pursue for the release of political detainees. Though it is an appreciable step that most of the leaders belonging to various political parties have been released and PSA against them revoked the detention of hundreds of other political activists who were detained around the August 5, 2019 continue to remain in jails without any review.
