In a landmark move, the BJP-led Leh chapter of the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council passed two resolutions on Wednesday after daylong deliberations seeking constitutional safeguards.

A special session of the general council meeting of LAHDC-Leh was conducted on Wednesday under Chairman LAHDC-Leh, Tashi Gyalson. After a threadbare discussion, two resolutions were moved in the House: the first one pressed for Constitutional safeguards in Ladakh under a suitable provision of the Indian Constitution and the second one sought constitutional protection along the lines of the 6th Schedule of the Indian Constitution.

The speakers sought safeguards for the protection of land, employment, socio-economy, culture, environment, and trade. CEC Gyalson said he hoped that the Union government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah would take a significant decision in the interest of the people of Ladakh in this regard.
