JAMMU, Sept 12: Shiv Sena Hindustan (SSH) has strongly advocated the removal of Article 35A from the Constitution of India.
Addressing a press conference in Jammu, State president, Shiv Sena Hindustan (SSH), Pt Rajesh Kesri said that no one in J&K is benefitting from Article 370 or Article 35A – whether they are Hindus or Muslims.
“It is only vested interests, the elite, who have been benefitting these provisions. Those in favour of its retention are misleading the people by advocating for Article 370,” Kesri said, reiterating that it is high time for this law to go.
“Article 35A violates the rights of a large section of society residing in the State. There is a separate State Constitution, separate State Flag and all the laws framed by the Parliament are not automatically applicable in State of J&K”, he said.
Kesri said all these factors put together resulted into a persistent all time nagging so called Kashmir problem which the nation is confronted with and this is the most opportune time for the Apex Court to take the call and get rid of Article 35A forever.
