,SINAGAR, JUNE,20 :
On J&K Cabinet Sub-Committee on reservations in recruitment, J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah says, “… When Mehbooba Mufti needed votes, she strictly banned her party members from even talking about reservation… When contesting elections from Anantnag and needing votes from Rajouri and Poonch, why did she not talk about reservation then?… Sajjad Lone was close to the government for five years when all this was happening. We were evicted from our government houses, and our security was reduced, while he was sitting in a government house. Why did he not talk about the reservation then? If I had to waste time, I would have given six more months to the Sub-Committee. What would they have done then? Did they have any way to force me to complete this report in 6 months?… The Cabinet has accepted the Sub-Committee’s report and sent it to the law department for their comments…”(ANI)
