Congress welcomes SC’s referral of LG nomination plea to high court

Srinagar, Oct 14: Jammu and Kashmir Congress president Tariq Karra on Monday said the party is satisfied with the Supreme Court’s decision to refer the plea challenging the Lieutenant Governor’s nomination of five members to the high court for further deliberation.
“Supreme Court’s stance is clear: the issue should first be addressed in the high court, with the option to return to the Supreme Court if needed,” Karra told Rising Kashmir. “We are challenging the constitutional soundness of the LG’s decision, as it bypasses the assembly’s role in the nomination process.”
Karra said the All India Congress Committee (AICC) has been vigorously pursuing the matter, with its senior leader Ravinder Sharma in Delhi to file a petition. “We immediately sought legal advice and filed the petition on behalf of the AICC. The Supreme Court has left the door open for further legal action, which is a positive development,” he added.
Meanwhile, Senior Vice President & Chief Spokesperson JKPCC, Ravinder Sharma told Rising Kashmir that the Supreme Court heard the matter at length.
“The Supreme Court observed that the high court should hear the matter and granted liberty to do so. It did not dismiss the matter,” he said.
Earlier, the Supreme Court refused to entertain a petition against the Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor’s (LG) power to nominate five members to the State Assembly.
National Conference emerged victorious in the recent Assembly elections, winning 42 seats in the 90 seats. The Congress won six seats and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) secured one seat.
This brought the coalition strength to 49. Several Independent candidates and the sole MLA from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have also supported NC, pushing its numbers comfortably beyond the majority mark.
