JAMMU, July 8: JKNPP leader Prof Bhim Singh has called upon the people of J&K to ensure that fundamental rights incorporated in the Constitution of India in its Chapter-III are made applicable to the residents of J&K.
In a statement, Prof Singh regretted that the fundamental rights available to the citizens of India have remained denied to the citizens of India residing in J&K for the reason that this State has not been fully integrated with the Union of India. “Article 370 is the wailing wall between J&K and the rest of the country which does not allow fundamental rights/human rights to flow from New Delhi to J&K where protesting students are kept under trial for years for the political movement they had initiated,” he added.
The JKNPP leader said that after the death of former Chief Minister, Mufti Mohd. Sayeed, there was no person who can carry the message of equality and equal treatment for the people of J&K at par with the people in rest of the country.
Prof Bhim Singh appealed the youth of J&K to join the Panthers Party in J&K which is the only hope to ensure that the people of J&K shall succeed ensuring the fundamental rights to all the people of J&K. “This mission can be achieved by reorganization the State of J&K so that twin States Jammu Pradesh and Kashmir Province could be organized by ensuring all fundamental rights to the people of J&K with one flag. So-called separate Constitution of J&K with no fundamental rights is farce, deception and cannot be accepted in 21st century when man has conquered the moon and the mars,” he stressed.
