JAMMU, Oct 4: The National Conference raised strong objections against the nomination of five MLAs to the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly by the Lieutenant Governor, saying this move is “unconstitutional and undemocratic”.
The National Conference said such powers lie solely with an elected government and cannot be exercised by the lieutenant governor in the absence of an elected body. “We have raised strong objections against the nomination of five MLAs to the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly by the LG & any such move is unconstitutional and undemocratic,” Jammu and Kashmir National Conference provincial president Rattan Lal Gupta said.
