New Delhi, Dec 11: Supreme Court judge Sanjay Kishan Kaul on Monday recommended setting up of an “impartial truth and reconciliation commission” to probe and report on human rights violations by both state and non-state actors in Jammu and Kashmir since the 1980s, saying the “wounds need healing”.
Justice Kaul delivered a separate but concurring verdict upholding the Centre’s decision to abrogate provisions of Article 370 bestowing special status upon the erstwhile state of J&K.
Justice Kaul, who hails from the erstwhile state, said men, women and children there have paid a heavy price due to the volatile situation, and during his travels he observed the consequences of inter-generational trauma on an already fractured society. (Agencies)
