Congress will use its full power to get statehood reinstated: Rahul Gandhi in Jammu and Kashmir

Kashmir, 23/1: The demand for statehood is Jammu and Kashmir’s biggest issue and the Congress will use “our full power” to get it reinstated, party MP Rahul Gandhi said on Monday as his Bharat Jodo Yatra arrived here to a grand welcome.

 

 

Gandhi, who met a cross section of people from Jammu and Kashmir during his yatra, said J&K has the highest level of unemployment in the country.

 

“The Congress party will fully support you and your statehood (demand). To reinstate statehood, the Congress will use our full power,” Gandhi told a gathering at the Satwari Chowk here.

 

“Statehood is your biggest issue. There is no big issue as big as statehood. Your right has been snatched,” he said
