Art 35-A creates Muslim State on territory of India: Ankur Sharma

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Aug 3: Chairman IIkkJutt Jammu Ankur Sharma described Article 35-A as an instrument of creating a Muslim State on the territory of India and hoped that Supreme Court of India will take notice of this reality sooner or later and declare it unconstitutional, null and void.
Addressing a press conference, Sharma said that abrogation of Article 35-A is imperative in case, India has to remain a democracy based upon right to equality and secular polity where all religions are equal.
He said that  Article 35-A has created a polity where all the non-Muslims in J&K become second class subject people and females become subservient to male dominance. “Therefore we saw State Government taking a stand on affidavit in Supreme Court in PIL titled Ankur Sharma v/s Union of India and Ors that majority community i.e Muslims will continue to take all minority benefits otherwise meant for Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Christians and Jains of J&K”, he stated.
Sharma warned all political parties not to play politics of expediency/appeasement and delay a decision on the constitutional status of Article 35-A.
“We want to bring it to the notice of every body that State Government is not a stakeholder in this issue because Art 35-A can be abrogated within minutes by a Presidential order to be issued on the recommendations of the Central Government”, he informed.
IIkkJutt Jammu has resolved to apprise the whole nation of the Muslim communal blackmail on this issue. It has also resolved to mobilize all the patriotic citizens of the whole nation in general and people of Jammu in particular to liberate the polity in J&K from the stranglehold of Muslims in Kashmir.
