Delhi police offered Ramlila Maidan, we rejected it: Omar on statehood protest
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah rejected the Delhi police's offer to hold a statehood protest at Ramlila Maidan, emphasizing the need to separate the demand for statehood from Article 370. Abdullah stated that restoring statehood is essential for regaining constitutional powers for Jammu and Kashmir, arguing that a union territory lacks the necessary authority. The protest he led was overshadowed by another political march, highlighting the chaotic nature of the event.
