Ladakh protests: LG Gupta holds security meetings, restrictions remain

India Oct 01, 2025

After last week's deadly protests in Ladakh—sparked by demands for statehood and constitutional protections—Lieutenant Governor Kavinder Gupta has been holding twice daily security meetings.
The violence left four people dead, including two young protesters, and many others injured.

Restrictions to be eased step by step: Gupta

These protests have put a spotlight on Ladakh's push for more political rights, since the region currently has no legislature.
Gupta says restrictions will be eased step by step as things calm down.
He's urging everyone to stay peaceful and not fall for rumors.
Meanwhile, the administration is helping those injured with medical care and financial support if they need treatment outside Ladakh.
