In a post on X, Lone said that the Government has sought outright dismissal of a petition challenging the reservation policy.
“In an affidavit filed before the J & K High Court yesterday by the J & K Government in the case of Zahoor Ahmed Bhat and others vs UT of J & K, about RESERVATIONS, the J & K government has submitted that the petition is frivolous and sought its outright dismissal,” Lone said.
He also slammed the government for not apprising the High Court about the formation of a cabinet subcommittee on reservation.
“Nowhere has the government mentioned the formation of a subcommittee on reservations. This is a legal mystery. Seems the government is not taking its own committee seriously enough to merit a mention in its legal affidavit,” he said.
