BJP’s Sunil Sharma criticises opposition for demanding discussion on Waqf Bill in J&K Assembly

STC NEWS DESK
SRINAGAR, APRIL 07 (STC): Senior BJP leader and former minister Sunil Sharma criticized the National Conference (NC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Congress for demanding a discussion on the Waqf Bill in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly.
“Discussing a bill that has already been passed by Parliament and is currently sub judice is unconstitutional and illegal,” Sharma said.
He said, “Their MPs should have spoken in Parliament when the bill was being debated, but they were busy somewhere else. Now they are targeting the Assembly and raising issues which are out of its jurisdiction. It’s nothing but a political gimmick.”
He accused the opposition of attempting to mislead the people of Kashmir by stirring emotions around an issue already settled at the national level. (STC)
