Press Statement
 
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:
 
 
Dissolution of J & K Assembly Condemned
 
 
The action of the Jammu & Kashmir Governor, dissolving the legislative
assembly, at the behest of the Centre, is an illegal and unconstitutional
step.
 
The Governor has no business to decide that parties with "opposing
ideologies" cannot form a suitable government. By this yardstick, the
PDP-BJP government should not have been allowed to be formed after the
elections.  All that the Governor can do is to ask the leader who is staking
claim with majority support to prove that majority on the floor of the
house.
 
The Modi government has by taking this authoritarian measure further
complicated and worsened the situation in the state.
