Srinagar Oct 15 (KINS): Political parties in Kashmir on Thursday gave formal shape to their alliance formed after revocation of special status of Jammu and Kashmir on August 5 last year.
The decision was taken at an all-party meeting attended by National Conference chairman Farooq Abdullah, former chief ministers Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti, and other senior leaders.
“The People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration aims to restore Jammu and Kashmir’s constitutional status as it existed before August 5 last year,” said Farooq Abdullah. “The People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration favours initiation of dialogue between all stakeholders for resolution of the J&K issue.”
The Gupkar Declaration is a resolution issued after an all-party meeting on August 4, 2019, at the Gupkar residence of the NC president. The resolution, passed a day before the Centre announced its decision to abrogate Jammu and Kashmir’s special status and split it into two Union territories, said the parties unanimously resolved they would stand united in their effort to protect and defend the identity, autonomy and special status of Jammu and Kashmir against all attacks and onslaughts.
The parties had met again in August this year and vowed to fight for restoration of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir. (Agencies)
