Statehood for Ladakh | Kargil Democratic Alliance begins three-day hunger strike in Kargil

A three-day hunger strike by the Kargil Democratic Alliance (KDA) in support of their four-point demands, including Statehood and Ladakh's inclusion in the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution, commenced here on March 24, with people from different walks of life joining the symbolic protest against the Central government.

Separately, the hunger strike led by climate activist Sonam Wangchuk in Leh entered the 19th day as he expressed his displeasure over the “breach of trust” by the Union Home Ministry amid a deadlock over the talks between the representatives of the Leh-based Apex Body and the government.
