The petition also demanded that the Farooq Abdullah’s membership of Parliament be declared null and void and sedition charges be slapped on him under Section 124-A of IPC.

A bench of Justice Sanjay Kishan and Hemant Gupta while dismissing the petition said that the petitioner failed to substantiate his allegation that Farooq Abdullah had sought the help of China and Pakistan against India following the abrogation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir in August 2019.

The petitioners were fined Rs 50000.

During a television interview in 2020, Farooq Abdullah had said he wished that with China’s support, Article 370 of the Constitution, will be restored.
