Division status for Ladakh

Sir,
The decision of the Government to have the newly created Administrative/Revenue Division of Ladakh its headquarters jointly at Leh and Kargil is more than welcome.
This will certainly give a boost to the developmental activities in the area and would end discrimination with the region.
The region has not witnessed much development during the last several decades due to a number of reasons which include difficult terrain, apathetic Governments and other factors.
The people of the region will not have to travel long distances to get their day to day affairs solved in Kashmir or Jammu. Besides, more job opportunities will be created for the unemployed of this strategically important but far-flung area.
Though empowered through Hill Councils, it is now upto the people to carry on socio-economic development of this beautiful region. The Government has done its duty, now the ball is in people’s court.
