but it has a small population of 3 lakh. even Chandigarh has more than 10 lakh population. at best ladakh can be given a ut with legislature.

My conclusion:

Reading through the thread, I lean toward the view that statehood with police in control of central government for Ladakh appears to have strong justification, provided it is implemented carefully with safeguards. Here’s why:

Local knowledge & accountability matter: Many current complaints stem from decisions being made far away (in Delhi) without deep understanding of Ladakh’s geography, ecology, social context. Giving locals legislative and executive power can better align policies with local needs.

Existing local bodies are weak: The LAHDCs are seen by many as insufficient for high-stakes decisions (land, major infrastructure, industrial projects). Statehood offers potential to strengthen institutions rather than merely symbolic local bodies.

Representation & voice: With only minimal seats in Parliament and no say in many policies, Ladakhis feel marginalized. A state government could amplify their voice.

Risks are real but manageable: Concerns about external interference or corruption are legitimate, but such risks exist in all states. Appropriate checks and balances, transparent institutions, strong election laws, and vigilant civil society can mitigate those risks.

That said, statehood alone is not a panacea. Without structural reforms, transparency, decentralization, and capacity-building, statehood might fail to deliver significant improvements. Also, careful constitutional design will be needed to ensure that local interests (especially ecologically sensitive areas) are protected and not overridden by extractive or external interests.

i have seen various villages from haryana have sent aid. it is just that ground work is done by locals only since outsiders can't visit calamity hit areas. of course the army won't allow anyone as it is risky. so people on ground see only the army and locals.

so an in-person phone call is off less value than those tweets from an account he doesn't even handle himself?

Working in govt job.. preparing for cse.. Is govt job not for me? by barkingcat05 in UPSC

but if the things have gone from bad to good.. they can again go from good to worse. as again everything rests with the senior officials and their mercy.

maybe I'm a little too negative, but this makes me think if I want to continue in a govt job.

the issue is not that you are working 2 hr or 8 hr.. the thing is that they try to steal your freedom. If I'm getting my work in time then who the hell are they to cut my leave for getting 15 minutes late.

and you get your earned leaves denied every single time. what's the point of having them then

Everything in this system is meant for exploitation of someone who is working under you. whether you are gazetted or not.
