Jammu And Kashmir Congress Supporters Begin Hunger Strike Demanding Full Statehood Restoration
Leaders and supporters of the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) hold placards as they begin a hunger strike in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on August 9, 2025. The JKPCC stages the strike to demand the restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, on the sixth anniversary of the BJP-led government in New Delhi revoking the region's semi-autonomous status on August 5, 2019, by abrogating Articles 370 and 35A of the Indian Constitution and dividing the erstwhile state into two federally administered union territories.
