In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, authorities on Monday sealed the office of National Panthers Party (NPP) in Srinagar, drawing strong criticism from its former chairman Harsh Dev Singh, who recently rejoined the party after resigning from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Director of Estates department A K Sharma refused to comment on the sealing of the NPP office in Gandhi Nagar.
Singh requested the high court to take a suo moto notice of the sealing before the NPP formally lodges a petition against the action.
”Lt Governor (Manoj Sinha) is working at the behest of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) which is very unfortunate…the high court should take suo moto cognisance of the development as the NPP is a recognised party,” Singh said.—KMS
