Shah Faesal withdraws petition challenging abrogation of Art 370 

New Delhi, September 20, 2022 (PPI-OT):Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer, Shah Faesal, has withdrawn his plea from the Supreme Court of India challenging the repeal of Article 370 that led to the revocation of special status of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

Shah Faesal was among 23 petitioners who had challenged the Narendra Modi-led fascist Indian government’s decision to abrogate Article 370 of the Indian Constitution that granted special status to IIOJK.

Bar and Bench reported that after Modi government reinstated Shah Faesal, who resigned in 2019 and was detained for over a year after repeal of Article 370, he has now withdrawn his petition from the Indian Supreme Court challenging the scrap of the Article.

Faesal’s decision to withdraw the petition comes months after he was taken back into the Indian Administrative Service in April this year and appointed Deputy Secretary in the Ministry of Culture by the Modi regime.

Faesal resigned from service in 2019 to float his own political party in IIOJK. However, his resignation had never been accepted by the Modi government and he withdrew it later.
