Srinagar, July 02: Peoples Democratic Party leader and Pulwama MLA Waheed ur Rehman Para on Wednesday slammed the government for leaving the Advocate General’s position vacant, stating that nine months have passed since the government was elected.
He questioned the government, “why delay?”.
Terming it a “deliberate” inaction, Para said, “At a time when critical constitutional matters stemming from August 5, are in courts, this vacuum is deliberate”.
In a post on X, Para wrote, “9 months into an elected government, J&K still has no Advocate General. At a time when critical constitutional matters stemming from August 5, are in courts, this vacuum is deliberate. In a border state facing cross-border threats, denying legal aid and advice stalls justice, accountability, and healing. Why delay?”
