Jammu & Kashmir Assembly Demands Immediate Restoration of Statehood

The Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly formally adopted a resolution calling for the immediate reinstatement of the Union Territory's statehood. Lawmakers expressed that the removal of state status in 2019 has adversely affected the region's political autonomy and development. The resolution urges the central government to act swiftly and restore full state status to Jammu and Kashmir. It also requests that any legislative or constitutional changes required for the restoration be initiated without further delay. The move reflects a renewed push by local representatives to regain the constitutional position they held before the abrogation of Article 370.
