5 members to be nominated by LG to JK Assembly may play crucial role in govt formation
JAMMU, Oct 7 (PTI): Five persons to be nominated by the lieutenant governor as members of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly may play a crucial role in the formation of the next government in the union territory, sources said on Monday.
The Congress, National Conference and the PDP have opposed the nomination of the five members before government formation, and threatened to move the Supreme Court.
In August 2019, Article 370 — which gave Jammu and Kashmir special status — was revoked and the state was divided into two union territories.
