JAMMU: The Union government is set to introduce the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Constitutional Amendment Bill in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday.
The Centre’s move comes amid speculation about the possible restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, a region that was stripped of its special status with the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019.
There are speculations that the bill might restore statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, but the government has not officially confirmed this. Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has expressed optimism about something positive happening for the Union Territory during the ongoing parliament session.
Further details regarding the development are awaited.
