CM’s Statehood resolution likely to be discussed on September 28, but BJP has already indicated its rejection, terming it as an attempt to revive the 2000 autonomy resolution

Jammu and Kashmir LoP meets Union Home Minister a day after introduction of Statehood resolution

Union Home Minister Amit Shah faced a black-flag protest by Youth Congress activists upon his arrival in Kollam, Kerala on Saturday. The demonstrators attempted to disrupt the minister's schedule outside the Asramam ground, where they surged towards the moving motorcade led by Shah. Police swiftly intervened, removing the protesters to clear the path.

The confrontation between the youth wing members and local BJP supporters also ensued, but the police managed to restore order. Despite the disruption, Shah proceeded to Kundara to inaugurate an NCCF programme, and later visited Amritapuri to launch 'Viswa Sevana Dina' observances.
