J&K LG Approves Resolution for Statehood Restoration

Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's cabinet seeks to restore Jammu and Kashmir's statehood, facing criticism for not addressing Article 370.

The resolution for restoring Jammu and Kashmir's statehood was unanimously passed by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's cabinet and approved by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha.
The move is intended to begin a healing process, reclaim constitutional rights, and protect the identity of Jammu and Kashmir's people.
Political parties criticized the resolution for excluding Article 370, viewing it as a departure from the National Conference's pre-election promise.
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah is expected to visit New Delhi to present the resolution to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and discuss the matter with Union Ministers.
The Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly is scheduled to convene on November 4, with the Lieutenant Governor advised to address the assembly.
