The Supreme Court upheld the constitutional change, and elections have seen increased public participation amid improved security and infrastructure. Both articles emphasize the need for the Centre to fulfill its promise of reinstating full statehood, highlighting progress made and the importance of honoring constitutional commitments to strengthen federalism and democracy.
