How Modi Misread Ladakh | Siddiq Wahid on Broken Promises, Repression and a United Civil Society

#ladakh #sixthschedule #sonamwangchuk #indepth Ladakh-born political scientist Siddiq Wahid speaks to Siddharth Varadarajan, Founding Editor of The Wire, about the current crisis in one of India's most strategic borderlands, its political history and the way forward. Constitutional changes brought about by the Modi government in August 2019 freed Ladakh from the oversight of Srinagar but failed to empower the region's 300,000 people. Distributed almost equally between the two administrative regions of Leh and Kargil, the Ladakhis have been demanding 'Sixth Schedule' status and statehood. But New Delhi is unwilling to do accept this.
