The other Jantar Mantar protest: When CJP’s ‘Sansad Chalo’ eclipsed Omar Abdullah’s statehood demand
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah led a rally in New Delhi to demand the restoration of statehood for Jammu and Kashmir, coinciding with the Parliament's Monsoon Session. The National Conference's protest was overshadowed by the Cockroach Janta Party's 'Sansad Chalo' march and received little support from alliance partners. Abdullah stated that despite being blocked from the protest site, their demand for statehood would continue to be voiced.
