J&K parties seek action against Chief, Law Secretaries over statehood resolution

Political factions in Jammu and Kashmir, excluding the BJP, are calling for the dismissal of two senior bureaucrats who opposed a statehood resolution from Chief Minister Omar Abdullah. This intervention has raised alarms about the bureaucrats potentially exceeding their mandate in legislative affairs, prompting the presiding officer to remind that their views aren't obligatory for the assembly. BJP lawmakers have countered, branding the statehood measure as unconstitutional and illegal.
