The High Court on Wednesday granted one more week to the central and state governments to file objections to the pleas challenging the ban on civilian traffic along the Jammu-Srinagar national highway twice a week.
As soon as a batch of Public Interest Litigations (PILs) against the highway ban came up for hearing, state’s senior advocate general B A Dar told the court that the issue involved in these petitions has become a subject matter of a writ petition filed before the Supreme Court by vice- president Jammu and Kashmir Awami National Conference (ANC) Muzaffar Ahmad Shah.
