Srinagar: Petitioners who had petitioned against the abrogation of Article 370 are mulling to file a review petition in the Indian Supreme Court.
According to Kashmir Media Service, on December 11, the Indian Supreme Court upheld the Narendra Modi-led Indian government’s illegal decision to repeal Article 370, which granted special status to Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) spokesman and senior leader of Communist Party of India Marxist (CPI-M), Muhammad Yousuf Tarigami, in an interview in Srinagar said all the petitioners and those who backed them are in discussion and hopefully, a review petition will be lodged in the Supreme Court against its recent verdict.
He said, “We are seeking justice and want the apex court to reconsider its decision. The abrogation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir was an assault on the people of the region.”
He said after discussing the matter with legal luminaries, it was felt that there is room for a review petition before the apex court.
