Statehood Paramount For Ladakh, Will Approach Anyone To Get It: Independent MP Md Haneefa JanLeh, Aug 26: Haneefa Jan, Member of Parliament for Ladakh, has warmly welcomed the recent decision by Amit Shah, Union Home Minister, to create five new districts within the Union Territory of Ladakh: Drass, Sham, Zanskar, Changthang, and Nubra. The MP hailed the move as a significant step towards enhancing governance and administrative efficiency in the region, asserting that it will bring government services closer to the people and improve local administration.

Despite this praise, Jan expressed profound concerns over what he described as a critical oversight in the decision-making process. He pointed out that several vital areas, including the densely populated Sanko Subdivision, Shakar-Chiktan, Shargole, and Sot in District Kargil, were not included in the new district arrangements. These regions are not only crucial for the socio-economic development of Ladakh but also hold strategic importance.

The MP’s statement highlighted a potential issue of equitable development and representation, noting that the exclusion of these significant areas raises questions about fair treatment and the distribution of resources. Jan further emphasized that the omission of these regions could marginalize the majority Muslim population of Ladakh, a scenario that he finds deeply troubling.

“Ladakh should stand as a beacon of justice and equality,” Jan asserted. “The oversight in this decision could undermine the principles of justice and inclusivity that our region values.”

In a call for unity, Jan urged the people of Ladakh, regardless of their faith or background, to collectively advocate for the reconsideration of the restructuring plan. He stressed that a fair and comprehensive review of the proposed districts is necessary to ensure that all communities within Ladakh are properly represented and served.

Jan concluded his statement with a direct appeal to the Government of India: “I urge the authorities to address this oversight swiftly and ensure that the principles of justice, equity, and inclusivity are upheld in the administrative restructuring process.”
