ABOUT ANKUR SHARMA

President, Ekam Sanatan Bharat

Ankur Sharma was born in 1986 in the Kathua district of Jammu & Kashmir. Both his parents have worked with the State Government. He completed his schooling in Kathua. After finishing school, he went to Pune for higher studies, where he completed B.E. in Software Engineering ( I.T. ) from the University of Pune. He then secured a LLB
degree from the Faculty of Law, Delhi University. After obtaining a law degree, he started practicing in the Jammu and Kashmir High Court. As time progressed, Ankur Sharma began taking strong stand against many anti-Hindu laws legislated against the National interest. 

In 2014, he filed CMP-48 of 2014 in the Jammu and Kashmir High Court regarding the Rs 25,000 crore Land Scam related to the conferment of ownership rights of Government Lands. Under its aegis, Ankur Sharma requested the High Court to hand over the investigation of this scam to the CBI. And finally, in October 2020, while giving its verdict, the court handed over the investigation of this case to the CBI.

The land scam in Jammu and Kashmir was directly linked to the Land Jihad aimed at rapidly changing the Hindu majority Demography. And behind this was the Roshni Act of Jammu and Kashmir. Under the Roshni Act, there was a provision to give ownership rights to those who illegally occupied government land. This was a law intending the Islamization of Jammu and Kashmir. 

Challenging the constitutional validity of the Roshni Act, Ankur Sharma filed PIL 41/2014 in the Jammu wing of the Jammu and Kashmir High Court titled 'Ankur Sharma vs state of J&k and others'. This case also went on for 6 years and finally the decision came in favor of Ankur Sharma.
