Omar Abdullah Urges Ladakh Leaders to Seek Written Assurances from Centre
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah advised Ladakh leaders not to rely on verbal assurances from the central government regarding constitutional safeguards for land and jobs. Citing Jammu and Kashmir's unfulfilled promise of statehood restoration after assembly elections, he urged Ladakh's leadership to seek formal written commitments, such as affidavits. This advice follows recent inconclusive talks between Ladakh representatives and the Centre, amid ongoing demands for special status and upcoming protests marking the anniversary of last year's Leh violence.
