New Delhi: A delegation of retired judges and top jurists of India, led by the International Council of Jurists (ICJ) president and senior advocate, Adish Chandra Aggarwala, will unfurl the national flag at the iconic Lal Chowk in Jammu and Kashmir’s Srinagar on June 18.

Aggarwala, who is also the president of the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA), on Wednesday said, “The gesture was meant to demonstrate the ground reality to the international community that J&K has returned to normalcy after the Narendra Modi government’s decision to scrap Article 370 of the Constitution.”

“The abrogation of Article 370, from Jammu and Kashmir was not only wise but has also taken the wind out of Pakistan’s sails on the Kashmir issue despite Pakistan’s never-ending nefarious designs,” said Aggarwala.

The delegation led by Aggarwala, is scheduled to commence its J&K visit and local engagements from June 16 to 19. They will visit public places including schools, colleges and hospitals.

Aggarwala will also address teachers and students of Law Department of University of Jammu and Dogra Law College and members of J&K High Court Bar Association in Jammu on June 16.

The delegation will also meet the J&K Lt Governor Manoj Sinha and other dignitaries.
