Bare Act

The Jammu and Kashmir Legislature (Prevention of Disqualification) Act, 1962

This Act protects individuals holding specific positions from being disqualified as members of the Jammu and Kashmir State Legislature solely because they hold certain government roles. It identifies and exempts offices of profit such as ministerial roles, legislative whips, university leaders, and temporary advisory committee chairs from causing disqualification. By explicitly including these positions, the law ensures that officials can perform essential administrative duties without automatically losing their right to represent their constituents in the government, effectively streamlining the process of holding office and serving in the legislature simultaneously.
