Rahul Gandhi Urges PM with Key Demand on Jammu & Kashmir Ahead of Parliament Session

Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging the government to introduce a bill to restore statehood to Jammu and Kashmir during the upcoming Monsoon session of Parliament, starting July 21. In his letter, Gandhi emphasized that the demand for statehood is legitimate and rooted in constitutional and democratic rights. However, sources indicate that the government currently has no intention of presenting such a bill in this session. The appeal highlights ongoing political pressure on the central government regarding the status of Jammu and Kashmir, which has remained a contentious issue since its reorganization.
