Omar writes to all political parties for J&K’s statehood, calls it ‘essential course correction’

Jammu and Kashmir's Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah, has appealed to national parties, including the BJP, to reinstate statehood for J&K, emphasizing it as a constitutional right, not a discretionary favor. He argues that downgrading a state to a Union Territory sets a dangerous precedent, urging a bill in Parliament's current session.
