He also said that Punjabi was a part and parcel of the constitution of Jammu and Kashmir before the abrogation of Article 370 provisions. “Punjabi was a recognized language duly certified by the Constitution of Jammu and Kashmir.” The AAP leader said the move had “badly bruised the sentiments of the minorities, more so those belonging to the Sikh community”.

“Punjabi language has been given the recognition and guarantee under Article 146, Schedule VI of the J&K Constitution. Thus it becomes obligatory on the part of the J&K Government to make all efforts for the promotion of Punjabi language in addition to other regional languages,” a statement said. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ui=2&ik=ca69eb8d89&attid=0.1&permmsgid=msg-f:1730995787374367793&th=1805bb7f56259431&view=att&disp=safe&realattid=f_l2dbdn4m0
