What’s Happening in Ladakh? Haneefa Jan Breaks It Down

In this episode of the Nous Network podcast, we examine the political and democratic consequences of Ladakh’s transformation after the abrogation of Article 370. Host Asad Ashraf is joined by Haneefa Jan, Member of Parliament from Ladakh, for a detailed conversation on governance, identity, and survival in the region. The discussion traces how Union Territory status led to what many describe as bureaucratic domination, weakening local democratic representation. Haneefa Jan reflects on the protections once offered by Articles 370 and 35A—covering land, employment, and cultural identity—and asks whether the government is genuinely committed to Sixth Schedule safeguards or statehood. The podcast also addresses unemployment, demographic anxieties, environmental breakdown, glacier melt, and water scarcity. It critically engages with official narratives around protests and the treatment of voices like Sonam Wangchuk. At its core, this episode asks: what happens to democracy when local consent is replaced by distant administration—and what might Ladakh lose if this trajectory continues? #Ladakh #Article370 #SixthSchedule #DemocracyVsBureaucracy #LadakhUT #PoliticalRepresentation #FederalismInIndia #RegionalAutonomy #EnvironmentalJustice #GlacierMelt #ClimateCrisis #IndigenousRights #StatehoodForLadakh #saveladakh 00:00:00 Bumper 00:02:38 Introduction 00:03:10 How Ladakh’s Demand for Union Territory Status Has Changed Over Time? 00:07:54 Ladakh’s Demand for Sixth Schedule Status, and How Far the Movement Has Come 00:17:24 Absence of Legislature and Feeling of Alienation in Ladakh 00:18:50 Ladakh Protests and Its Political Implications 00:22:30 Role of Sonam Wangchuk in Ladakh Protests 00:25:59 How Authorities Have Responded to the Protests? 00:27:46 Ladakhi’s Disenchantment after 370 Abrogation 00:30:59 Sonam Wangchuk’s Alleged Links with Pakistan 00:33:21 Situation of Ladakh after Sonam Wangchuk’s Arrest 00:35:32 Youth Unemployment and Economic Development in Ladakh 00:38:35 Autonomous Hill Development Councils in Ladakh 00:42:42 Environmental and Cultural Concerns in Ladakh 00:47:30 The Ladakh Protests, the Crackdown, and the National Security Argument 00:51:09 How the Government Has Responded to the Protesters’ Demand 00:56:24 Hanifa Jan’s Political Vision and Plan Subscribe: https://www.nousnetwork.org/#/portal Support here: https://www.nousnetwork.org/#/portal/...
