Ladakh admin dissolves LAHDC Kargil
Leh, Oct 21: In a major administrative development in the Union Territory of Ladakh, Lieutenant Governors Administration has ordered the immediate dissolution and de-constitution of the erstwhile Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC), Kargil, following the resignation of key council members and the reorganisation of district boundaries. The decision comes a day after the Chief Executive Councillor (CEC), three Executive Councillors and six other councillors of the erstwhile LAHDC Kargil tendered their resignations on October 20, 2026. The move also comes amid the creation of new districts, including Drass, Zanskar and Sankoo, which has led to changes in the territorial boundaries of the erstwhile Kargil district. As per the order issued by the Administration of the Union Territory of Ladakh, the erstwhile council stands dissolved with immediate effect. Consequently, the CEC, Executive Councillors and all elected or nominated members have ceased to hold office and exercise powers under the former council. To ensure that the administrative transition does not disrupt public services or create a governance vacuum, the administration has assigned all powers, duties and functions previously exercised by the erstwhile LAHDC Kargil to the Deputy Commissioner-cum-Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Kargil, on an interim basis. The arrangement is intended to maintain administrative continuity and ensure the uninterrupted delivery of public services until separate Autonomous Hill Development Councils are fully constituted in accordance with the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Councils Act, 1997, and the rules framed thereunder, as amended from time to time.

Soura hospital gets thumbs-up for cleanliness
Srinagar: At a time when questions are being raised over sanitation and hygiene in government healthcare facilities, the maternity hospital at Soura is drawing appreciation from patients and attendants for maintaining cleanliness across its premises. From the hospitals indoor areas, where women come for delivery and postnatal care, to the outside premises and parking area, cleanliness appears to be receiving particular attention. For women visiting the hospital during one of the most important moments of their lives, a clean and hygienic environment offers not only comfort but also a sense of reassurance. Kulsuma Bano, a woman from Kulgam who recently delivered at the hospital, expressed happiness over the cleanliness maintained on the premises. Speaking to Rising Kashmir she said the hospitals hygienic surroundings had made her experience more comfortable. She said that the absence of unpleasant smells and the attention given to cleanliness made the hospital environment more welcoming for patients and their attendants. She also appreciated the fact that cleanliness was maintained not only inside the hospital but also in the parking area and other outdoor spaces. Another woman, Tasleema from Ganderbal, also shared her positive experience, saying she was pleased to see the level of cleanliness maintained at the facility. She said a clean hospital environment benefits everyone, particularly women arriving for delivery, newborn babies and the family members who accompany them. According to her, maintaining hygiene in healthcare facilities is essential for ensuring a comfortable environment and reducing the risk of infections. For expectant mothers and their families, hospital visits often come with anxiety and concern. In such circumstances, clean surroundings, properly maintained patient areas and hygienic outdoor spaces can make a meaningful difference to their overall experience. Meanwhile, hospital authorities have also urged the public to cooperate in maintaining cleanliness inside and around the hospital premises. They appealed to patients, attendants and visitors to avoid littering and dispose of waste responsibly, stressing that keeping the hospital clean is a collective responsibility that requires the active participation of everyone.

Soura chowk encroachments trigger traffic snarls
Srinagar: Street vendors occupying footpaths and roadside spaces at Soura Main Chowk have become a major cause of daily traffic congestion, leaving commuters and pedestrians struggling to pass through the busy junction. Locals said street vendors, particularly those selling street food, fruits and other edible items, have set up their stalls along the roadside at places frequently used by passing vehicles. The encroachment reduces the available road space, disrupting the smooth movement of traffic and causing frequent jams, especially during busy hours. The situation has raised concerns among residents and commuters, as Soura Main Chowk serves as an important route connecting Srinagar and Ganderbal. The area also witnesses regular movement of patients and attendants travelling to SKIMS and SKIMS Maternity Hospital, raising concerns over delays for people seeking medical assistance. Mohd Ramzan, a local commuter, said he was travelling towards Srinagar at around 5 pm when he encountered traffic congestion at the chowk. He said street food vendors had occupied roadside spaces used by passing vehicles, making it difficult for commuters to move through the area. Another elderly passerby, Noor Mohammad, said the location holds particular importance because of its proximity to major healthcare facilities. He said traffic congestion at such a busy junction creates inconvenience for daily commuters and may also cause difficulties for vehicles carrying patients to nearby hospitals. Locals said the issue has become a recurring problem and urged the concerned authorities to regulate street vending at Soura Main Chowk. They called for appropriate measures to ensure that footpaths remain accessible to pedestrians and roadside spaces are kept clear for the smooth movement of traffic. At the same time, locals urged the administration to identify and provide a separate designated space for street vendors where they can carry out their businesses without hindrance. They said such an arrangement would help vendors earn their livelihood while ensuring that pedestrians and commuters do not face inconvenience due to roadside encroachments. Residents have appealed to the concerned authorities to look into the matter and take necessary steps to ease congestion at the chowk, ensuring smoother passage for commuters, pedestrians and patients travelling to nearby hospitals while also safeguarding the livelihoods of street vendors.

Centre approves Ladakhs first medical college in Leh
Srinagar, Oct 21: The Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has approved the operationalisation of Ladakhs first Government Medical College at Spituk Pharka in Leh from the academic year 2027-28, marking a major milestone in expanding medical education and healthcare infrastructure in the Union Territory. The approval allows the UT Administration to initiate staggered recruitment for 103 sanctioned regular posts of faculty and supporting staff, following a one-time relaxation from the requirement of 80 per cent completion of infrastructure before recruitment begins. In a communication to the Commissioner-cum-Secretary, Health and Medical Education Department, Ladakh, the Ministry conveyed that the Department of Expenditure had agreed to the proposal, subject to specified conditions. The proposal was submitted by the UT Administration through a letter dated August 5, 2026, seeking approval for the medical colleges operationalisation from 2027-28 and relaxation of the infrastructure completion requirement to facilitate recruitment. As per the conditions laid down by the Department of Expenditure, recruitment to the 103 sanctioned posts will be undertaken in a staggered manner, in line with academic requirements from the 2027-28 academic year onwards, as identified by the UT Administration. The Ministry has also directed that the posts be filled on a regular basis in accordance with the approved recruitment rules. Regarding infrastructure, the UT Administration has been asked to ensure that any interim arrangement remains temporary and that the college shifts to its dedicated infrastructure once construction is completed. The administration will also have to establish reasonable timelines for completion of the proposed infrastructure at Spituk Pharka and inform the Department of Expenditure when the transition from the interim arrangement to the dedicated facilities takes place. Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh, Vinai Kumar Saxena, in a statement on social media, termed the approval a historic milestone and thanked Union Health Minister J.P. Nadda for considering his request for a one-time relaxation of the infrastructure requirement. He said the decision would enable preparatory recruitment for the sanctioned posts to begin while construction of the dedicated academic infrastructure progresses. The LG said the approval fulfilled a long-standing aspiration of the people of Ladakh and would create opportunities for local youth to pursue medical education closer to home. He added that the medical college would also strengthen the regions healthcare ecosystem in the long term. The UT Administration, he said, would ensure all necessary arrangements to welcome the first batch of medical students in the 2027-28 academic session.

Kashmir artisans trained to tap niche markets
Srinagar, Oct 21: In a bid to raise awareness regarding branding and packaging of high-value handmade products that hold sway in niche markets, the Directorate of Handicrafts and Handloom, Kashmir successfully concluded a series of 10 Capacity Building Programmes under RAMP, a flagship programme of the Ministry of MSME. The programmes were held at the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT), Srinagar, benefiting more than 1000 artisans, weavers, cooperative societies and Self Help Groups. In a press statement issued here today, a spokesman of the Department stated that the workshops were designed to inculcate the significance of proper branding, packaging and GI labelling of their high-end products so that they become market-ready. Our focus revolves around promotion of GI crafts, ODOPs and other distinctive traditional crafts. The artisans and weavers represented a wide range of heritage crafts including Sozni, Crewel and Ari Staple embroidery, Walnut Wood Carving, Papier Mch, Pashmina and Tweed/Pattoo Weaving, he said. The spokesman further added that NIFT faculty members and domain experts led the interactive and practical sessions covering product identity, brand development, visual presentation and customised packaging. The participants were also sensitised about the role of packaging in protecting products, facilitating transportation and effectively communicating product attributes and value to consumers, he added. The programmes underscored that branding and packaging are not merely promotional tools but integral components of product development, market positioning and enterprise growth. By blending Kashmirs rich traditional craftsmanship and cultural identity with benchmark techniques, the initiative aims to improve visibility and marketability of Kashmir's famed craft products, he added.

Handwara, Oct 21: Students of Government Degree College (GDC), Handwara, are set to get relief from daily transport difficulties after a bus funded under the Members of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) was inaugurated at the college on Wednesday. The bus was inaugurated by Langate MLA Sheikh Khursheed in the presence of representatives from the office of Baramulla MP Er Rashid, including former BDC Langate Showkat Hussain, former Municipal Chairman Langate Advocate Shahnawaz Abdullah, and other dignitaries. Principal GDC Handwara, Professor Aijaz Hussain Kanth, along with college staff, was also present. Speaking on the occasion, MLA Sheikh Khursheed said the bus fulfilled a commitment made by Er Rashid during his visit to the college last year. The MP had promised to provide a bus for GDC Handwara during his visit last year, and today that promise has been fulfilled. This is an important step towards addressing the difficulties faced by students, particularly those travelling from far-flung and hilly areas, Khursheed said. He said Er Rashid had consistently raised issues related to education and student welfare, adding that initiatives such as free coaching in the Langate constituency reflected his commitment to improving educational opportunities. Khursheed also thanked the district administration and college authorities for their support in facilitating the process. He said MPLADS funds were being recommended for development works across all 18 Assembly constituencies falling under the Baramulla parliamentary constituency, with the aim of addressing local requirements and promoting balanced development. Students welcomed the new facility, saying the lack of reliable transport often made their daily journey to college difficult. For many students, reaching college on time is a challenge because of the hilly terrain and limited transport facilities. This bus will make our daily commute easier and safer, and help us focus more on our studies, students said. Principal Professor Aijaz Hussain Kanth and the college staff also welcomed the initiative, saying improved transport facilities would make the institution more accessible to students from distant areas. The MPs office reiterated its commitment to supporting educational institutions, addressing public grievances and assisting people affected by natural disasters.
