LG Ladakh (@lg_ladakh) posts on X: "Overwhelmed by the massive gathering and jubilant celebrations in Sankoo today, on declaration of Sankoo as Ladakh’s 8th district, followed by the announcement to constitute Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC), as in all other districts of Ladakh.

The immense joy and gratitude of the people, braving the icy winds on a chilly evening, is truly heartwarming. This historic milestone fulfils their long-standing demand and brings the administration right to their doorstep, in one of the most populous regions in Ladakh.

Deepest gratitude to Hon'ble PM Shri @narendramodi Ji and Hon'ble HM Shri @AmitShah Ji, for consistently guiding Ladakh on the path of progress and inclusive development.

I assure the people of Sankoo that all administrative requirements, including the posting of officials, will be addressed at the earliest, so that the benefits of development reach every single household."
