Leh and Kargil representatives from the Ladakh Apex Body and Kargil Democratic Alliance submitted a list of non-negotiable demands to the Ministry of Home Affairs, seeking an elected Ladakh Legislative Assembly with a Chief Minister, constitutional safeguards, financial powers, and control over home affairs. They also requested withdrawal of cases and compensation related to the September 24 incident. The demands follow earlier discussions with the government and aim to establish a democratic setup with distinct administrative services for Ladakh.
