Srinagar: National Conference MP Agha Syed Ruhullah Mehdi has reaffirmed his support for students protesting over the reservation issue and urged the authorities to immediately engage with them and spell out the steps being taken to resolve the matter.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Ruhullah Mehdi in a post on X said that he had neither forgotten nor abandoned the students, emphasising that clear and transparent communication from the authorities was essential at this juncture.<\/p>\n
He warned that if the authorities fail to initiate dialogue and inform students of concrete measures by Saturday, he would personally join them in protest.<\/p>\n
The MP said that he would walk with the students and sit with them on Sunday at the same venue where a protest was held on December 23 last year, to ensure their concerns are heard.<\/p>\n
Ruhullah\u2019s statement comes amid continuing student unrest over the reservation policy.<\/p>\n
Earlier this month, the Omar Abdullah-led government approved a revised reservation framework, reportedly intended to address long-pending concerns over an uneven quota system. However, the details of the policy are yet to be made public.<\/p>\n
The proposal has been forwarded to Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha for approval, but the absence of clarity has heightened anxiety among students and several organisations. Many groups have warned of protests if the proposed changes are found to be insufficient or cosmetic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
