Srinagar, Nov 06 (KNO): Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday described the resolution on Article 370 moved by the National Conference in the legislative assembly, as "halfhearted" and "lacking conviction".
Addressing a press conference at party headquarters in Srinagar, PDP president, as per news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), said the resolution, intended to call for the restoration of Article 370 and 35A, fell short in language and intent.
"The language could have been better, this is a halfhearted attempt and we are thinking of bringing amendments to the resolution," she said.
She said that while NC's resolution did acknowledge concerns about the 2019 revocation of Jammu and Kashmir's special status, but it failed to explicitly condemn the decision, which she described as unconstitutional.
"Instead of firmly calling for the complete restoration of Article 370, the resolution only suggested that dialogue be held on the matter. Dialogue with whom," Mufti questioned.
The PDP president during the presser said that the party was considering bringing amendments to the resolution, to ensure it reflects the strong sentiments of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
"This isn't about taking credit," she said, adding that PDP's stance remains rooted in its commitment to its election promises, to fully oppose the revocation and seek its restoration—(KNO)
