    LOK SABHA ___ SYNOPSIS OF DEBATES (Proceedings other than Questions & Answers) ______ Wednesday, February 5, 2020 / Magha 16, 1941 (Saka) ______ STATEMENT BY THE PRIME MINISTER THE PRIME MINISTER (SHRI NARENDRA MODI): Today, I have specially come before all of you to share information pertaining to a very important and historic subject. This subject is as close to the heart of crores of our fellow countrymen as it is to me. And I feel honoured to speak about this. This subject is connected to Shri Ram Janm Bhoomi and is about construction of a magnificent temple of Bhagwan Shri Ram at his birth place at Ayodhya. On 9th November 2019, I was in Punjab for dedicating the Kartarpur Sahib corridor to the nation on the occasion of the 550th Prakash Parv of Guru Nanakdev ji. It was in this divine environment that I come to know about the historical judgment of Highest Court of the country on the subject of Ram Janm Bhoomi. In this judgement, the Hon'ble Supreme Court decided that the Inner and Outer Courtyard of the disputed land in Ram Janm Bhoomi belongs to Bhagwan Shri Ram Lalla Virajman. The Hon'ble Supreme Court, in their judgment, had also stated that the Central Government and the State Government, in consultation with each other, will allot 5 acres of land to the Sunni Central Waqf Board. Today, I am very happy to share with this august House and the entire country that the Union Cabinet in its meeting held this morning has taken important decisions on this issue, keeping in mind the directions of the Supreme Court.

  • Delimitation Commission for Jammu & Kashmir
    20 June, 2021 Delimitation Commission for Jammu & Kashmir What is the news? The Delimitation Commission for the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir has kicked off the exercise by writing to all 20 District Commissioners (DC), seeking basic demographic, topographic information as well as the local administration’s impressions of political aspirations of the district. The Commission was set up in February-March 2020 to delineate Assembly and parliamentary constituencies, and was given a year’s extension last March. It is only after the completion of the delimitation exercise that elections for the Assembly can be held, although District Development Council (DDC) polls were held last year on earlier patterns and based on the 2011 Census. The then State of Jammu and Kashmir was kept out of the delimitation exercise when it was carried out in the rest of country (between 2002-2008), as delimitation of Assembly seats was under the Jammu and Kashmir Constitution and its separate Representation of People Act. After becoming a Union Territory, the Delimitation Commission was constituted and asked to mark out Assembly and Parliament seats. The Commission, headed by Justice (retired) Ranjana Prakash Desai and comprising two other members, had called for a meeting in February 2021, where only two of its five associate members — Union Minister Jitendra Singh and Jugal Kishore Singh, MP — attended. National Conference leaders Dr. Farooq Abdullah and Hasnain Masoodi, MP, and Mohammad Akbar Lone did not attend. The renewed push by the Centre for talks has raised hopes not only of early Assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir but also of an eventual restoration of statehood, which was taken away under the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019, a reading down of Article 370 of the Constitution.
