      Roads in Ladakh wore a deserted look on Monday as all commercial activities were halted in the union territory to push the demand for complete statehood.

      The bandh called by a Leh Apex Body, which represents various social, religious and political groups in the district, and the Kargil Democratic Alliance

      Along with full statehood, both groups also want constitutional safeguards on the lines of the 6th schedule; separate parliament seats for Leh and Kargil districts and recruitment for 12,000 posts in Ladakh.

      While there were celebrations in Ladakh in August 2019 when Jammu & Kashmir was bifurcated into 2 union territories, local bodies have been asking for complete statehood since.

      Leaders from the UT had also met Union Home Minister Amit Shah earlier this year to put forward their demands.
