NEW DELHI, Aug 30: The Government’s top law officer will help the Supreme Court with regard to the legal aspects of Article 35A of the Constitution under which special rights and privileges are granted to the “permanent residents” of the State, Union Home Secretary Rajiv Mehrishi said today.
“There are 4-5 cases on 35A in the Supreme Court. These are only legal issues. The Attorney General will help the Supreme Court,” Mehrishi said here.
The Supreme Court last month had asked the Centre to file a reply to a writ petition filed by an NGO seeking that Article 35A be struck down. (AGENCIES)
