Veteran Congress leader and Maharaja Hari Singh’s son Karan Singh on Monday welcomed the Supreme Court’s verdict on Article 370 saying that it gives clarity and stability to the situation.
Karan Singh also thanked the apex court for upholding the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution and ordering the Election Commission to hold elections in Jammu and Kashmir by September 30, 2024.
His remarks came after the Chief Justice of India ruled on Monday, “We direct that steps shall be taken by the Election Commission of India to conduct elections to the Legislative Assembly of Jammu and Kashmir constituted under Section 14 of the Reorganisation Act by 30 September 2024; restoration of statehood shall take place at the earliest and as soon as possible.”
Karan Singh also urged the people to accept the reality and start preparing for the elections rather than getting involved in negative activities.
Karan Singh said, “I welcome the verdict of the Supreme Court because it gives clarity and stability to the situation. And I congratulate the Supreme Court for the meticulous manner in which they have written the judgment looking at every single point that was raised.”
