Srinagar, Apr 05: The Jammu and Kashmir government has come under scrutiny for labeling a petition regarding reservations as “frivolous” and seeking its outright dismissal in an affidavit submitted to the J&K High Court in the case of Zahoor Ahmed Bhat and Others vs UT of J&K.
The affidavit fails to address the existence of a sub-committee allegedly established by the government to examine reservation issues, raising concerns about the administration’s commitment to its own initiatives.
Commenting on the development, People’s Conference (PC) Chairman Sajad Lone said, “Nowhere has the government mentioned the formation of a sub-committee on reservations. This is a legal mystery. Seems the government is not taking its own committee serious enough to merit a mention in its legal affidavit.”
