<h1>PDP Leader Calls on Legislators to Reinstate July 13 as Public Holiday in Jammu and Kashmir</h1> The leader of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) has urged the party's legislators to ensure the passage of a resolution in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly to reinstate July 13 as a public holiday. This date commemorates the 1931 martyrdom of 22 Kashmiris during a protest against the Dogra monarchy. The holiday was removed following the 2019 abrogation of Article 370. The PDP views the holiday as a symbol of Kashmir's historical struggle for democracy and seeks to restore its recognition, asserting it as a critical part of the region's political narrative and democratic history.
