The Centre is likely to initiate the process of restoring statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, over five years after the region's statehood and special status were revoked, sources said. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah met with Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi, where the issue was discussed. The meeting lasted 30 minutes and was described as cordial. During the discussion, Mr. Shah assured the Centre's full support to the newly elected government in Jammu and Kashmir and confirmed that the process of restoring statehood would soon begin. This move is seen as a significant step toward political restoration in the region.
