Statehood yes, pre-2019 status no: BJP opposes Omar Abdullah resolution
The Jammu and Kashmir Assembly saw intense debate as BJP legislators opposed Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's resolution for full statehood, particularly objecting to references of the pre-August 5, 2019 status. The BJP proposed ten amendments, eight aimed at restoring the special status. The assembly session turned chaotic with slogans and demands for the Speaker's resignation.
