EARLY TIMES REPORT

KATHUA, June 19: Jammu Kashmir Sharnarthi Action Committee (JKSAC) in a meeting held at Village Kattal Gujjran, Tehsil Hiranagar urged upon Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah to indicate in the term of reference, specified for delimitation commission to redraw the boundaries of constituencies in the UT of J&K. The prominent people who participated in the meeting demanded that two constituencies in proportion to their population, out of 7 increased assembly seats be demarcated for DPs of 1947 from PoK for the time being, till the reorganization act of 2019 is reviewed again and amended to defreeze the 24 reserved seats for the people of PoK which have been captivated without any justification.
Gurdev Singh, President JKSAC along with Ashok Kumar and Babu Ram strongly expressed their concern in this regard and said that DPs have been crying since their migration to defreeze their share of seats out of 24 to have their legitimate and democratic right to represent their people in the legislature.
Gurdev Singh said that after the historical abrogation of article 370 and 35A it was expected that some provision would be made in the reorganization act to accommodate DPs aspirations and accordingly this issues along with other settlement issues would be taken care of. But unfortunately nothing happened as such and instead only seven seats were increased and DPs were deprived again and made to wait for another 20 or 30 years till next delimitation commission is announced or PoK is liberated as asserted.
