Raises concerns over State Government’s intention on GST
Seeks deferment of Legislative Session till All Party Meet held
SRINAGAR: National Conference Working President Mr. Omar Abdullah on Friday led a party delegation that called on the Honourable Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Shri N. N. Vohra at Raj Bhawan, Srinagar. The delegation apprised the Governor of the party’s fears and apprehensions about the possible and seemingly imminent extension of Constitutional Amendment 101 of the Constitution of India to the State and said such a plan would have wider and irreversibly adverse ramifications on the State’s fiscal autonomy and will impinge upon the residuary powers enjoyed by the State.
The delegation, on this occasion, submitted a memorandum to the Honourable Governor and requested him to use his good offices to impress upon the State Government to ensure they don’t take any such arbitrary step which could have far-reaching negative consequences on the residuary powers enjoyed by the State and consequently its fiscal autonomy.
