Sukesh Khajuria, a former member of the prominent citizen's advisory committee constituted by the state government, in an application sought action under section 196 of the CrPC against them for "accepting PoK as part of Pakistan".
In the application, he said they should be booked under section 124-A of the Ranbir Penal Code (Sedition) and other provisions of law.
On November 11, Abdullah had told reporters that PoK belonged to Pakistan and "this won't change" no matter how many wars India and Pakistan fight.
He alleged that Abdullah's statement Kapoor's tweet were "inciting violence" and "public disorder" and fell under the ambit of section 124-A of the RPC.
