Srinagar: After various councilors of MC Anantnag joined Apni Party, J&K Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) Sunday said Hilal Ahmad Shah and other councilors were elected on Congress symbol and demanded their resignation on moral grounds.
JKPCC Spokesperson in a statement said Hilal Ahmad Shah MC President Anantnag along with some councilors joined Apni Party without resigning from the position they are enjoying currently in MC Anantnag. “They have been elected on Congress symbol and they should have send their resignation to party prior to their joining a few month’s old party”.
“Shah and other councilors have adopted unethical way. They should resign alongwith other councilors to ensure sanctity of the institution (Municipal Committee Anantnag),” he said.
The Congress spokesman said resorting to horse-trading and coercion is the hallmark of Apni Party, which is certainly not going to help it, neither in present nor in future. (KNS)
