The police have deployed security trucks outside the homes of the political leaders and no one is being allowed to enter or exit from there.
Three former Jammu and Kashmir chief ministers have been put under house arrest to prevent their proposed protest against the delimitation commission. The high-security zone, Gupkar Road in Srinagar, where Farooq Abdullah, Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah are staying has been sealed off. Good morning & welcome to 2022. A new year with the same J&K police illegally locking people in their homes & an administration so terrified of normal democratic activity. Trucks parked outside our gates to scuttle the peaceful @JKPAGD sit-in protest. Some things never change. pic.twitter.com/OeSNwAOVkp

The Gupkar Alliance headed by Farooq Abdullah had announced a protest against the recently released delimitation commission draft proposal of allotment of assembly seats in Jammu and Kashmir.
The commission has proposed six additional seats for Jammu province against one seat in Kashmir, which runs contrary to the population ratio of both provinces of the former state.
