Oppn demands tabling of Bedi Commission report in Assembly

Jammu, Mar 30 (PTI):The Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Saturday witnessed uproar as opposition demanded tabling in House of the Justice H S Bedi commission report on the death National Conference (NC) worker Syed Mohammad Yousuf.  As the Assembly commenced, Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP) member Balwant Singh Mankotia raised the issue of the Bedi Commission report and sought that it should be tabled in the House so that it is made public. Requesting Speaker Mubarak Gul for his direction to the government to table the report in the House, Mankotia said, "We want that report should be made public - we have till now known the outcome of the report though press and media reports - we do not know what is factual report about it."
"The government should make it public through the House," he said and was supported by other members of JKNPP. However, the request was turned down by the Speaker, who said it was not necessary. Angered by the Speaker's statement,
the JKNPP members staged a walkout from the Assembly.
The 96-page report of Justice Bedi Commission was submitted to state Law Secretary G H Tantray at Jammu on December 22, 2012.
