The Jammu and Kashmir unit of the Congress party held a protest outside its party headquarters, targeting the BJP-led central government. The demonstrators, led by Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Tariq Hameed Karra, are demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, citing his 'abject surrender' in international dealings, particularly with the US.
The protesters, carrying banners like 'Restore Statehood' and 'Hamari Riyasat Hamara Haq', expressed dissatisfaction with the handling of India's foreign policy. They accused Modi of diminishing India's stature on global platforms, a nation once known for its leadership in movements like the Non-Aligned Movement.
The protest saw a strong police presence, preventing demonstrators from marching forward. Amid slogans against the Modi administration, the Congress emphasized their demand for statehood restoration in Jammu and Kashmir. Rising domestic prices and their impact on the economic situation were also criticized during the demonstration.
