Ladakh Lieutenant Governor Announces Sankoo as New District
Ladakh Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena announced the creation of Sankoo as the region's eighth district, fulfilling a long-standing local demand. The decision follows the BJP Ladakh unit's earlier declaration of Sankoo as an organisational district and acknowledges contributions from local leaders and organisations. This move aligns with the central government's development vision and comes months after Ladakh was granted five new districts earlier this year.
