Sajad Lone, the leader of the Jammu Kashmir Peoples Conference (JKPC), expressed his satisfaction after the Legislative Assembly passed a resolution condemning the actions taken on August 5, 2019, the day when Article 370 was revoked.
Speaking to Kashmir News Service (KNS), Lone said, “Today is a moment of great satisfaction for me. In this first session of the Assembly, it has been officially acknowledged that the events of August 5, 2019, were wrong, both morally and constitutionally. This moment will be remembered in history as a clear rejection of those actions.”
A staunch critic of the revocation of Article 370, Lone had earlier called for the suspension of the Assembly proceedings to emphasize the significance of the issue.
He welcomed the resolution, highlighting its importance in the political landscape of Jammu Kashmir.
