Centre proposes Article 371K safeguards and elected body for Ladakh

States

  • Centre has proposed Article 371K to give Ladakh constitutional safeguards for land, jobs, culture and key rights.
  • The proposed body would be a first-of-its-kind model for Ladakh, instead of giving the UT one new legislative body.
  • Ladakh may get a directly elected UT-level body with powers over land, culture, forests and local resources too.
  • The Centre and Ladakh representatives are discussing the body's powers, with a draft expected in October this year.
