JAMMU: Lieutenant governor Manoj Sinha has called a special J&K assembly session on April 28 over the Pahalgam terror attack following advice from the Omar Abdullah-led govt.
The move came on a day when Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi met Sinha and was urged to take effective steps to bring the Pahalgam attackers to justice. The Omar-led National Conference (NC) govt had on Wednesday requested Sinha to call the special session. That was a day after the attack.
“I, Manoj Sinha, Lieutenant Governor of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, in exercise of powers conferred upon me under section 18(1) of Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019, do hereby summon the Assembly to meet at Jammu on April 28, 2025, at 10.30 A.M. All members are requested to kindly attend,” the LG’s official order stated.
The assembly had wrapped up its budget session on April 9, capping a tumultuous time during which opposition and governing NC members demanded debates on the new Waqf law piloted by the BJP-led govt at the Centre.
