Changes to Article 35-A linked to 2019 polls: APSCC prez

All Parties Sikh Coordination Committee (APSCC) today opposed any changes to Article 35-A of the Constitution, which guarantees special status to Jammu and Kashmir.

The APSCC activists led by chairman Jagmohan Singh Raina assembled at Pratap Park here to register their protest.

Talking to reporters, Raina claimed that the demand for abrogation of Article 35-A was "closely linked" to the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

He said the APSCC has extended support to the two-day protest programme of separatist Joint Resistance Leadership on August 26 and 27.
