Ladakh Leaders Reject Centre's Article 371(K) Proposal Amid Concerns Over Council Amendments
The Central Government's proposal for a new elected body under Article 371(K) in Ladakh has faced rejection from local leaders who find it lacking in meaningful empowerment and constitutional guarantees. Negotiations have stalled over disagreements on the body's structure and powers. Meanwhile, the Kargil Democratic Alliance criticized recent government amendments to the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Councils, arguing these changes increase administrative control without adequate consultation, raising concerns about the future autonomy of Ladakh's representative institutions.
