Chief Minister Omar Abdullah’s office moves to Jammu and Kashmir’s winter capital

J&K CM Omar Abdullah and his ministers started working from winter capital Jammu on Monday. The practice was stopped in 2020, soon after the abrogation of Article 370 and 35 (A) during the Covid-19 pandemic.

National Conference leaders say the move is an important step to end uncertainty regarding the presence and availability of officials in the Union Territory.

This is Abdullah’s first visit to the secretariat in Jammu since taking charge as the CM on October 16 in Srinagar. The CM was greeted by his Council of Ministers, including deputy CM Surinder Choudhary and Cabinet members Sakeena Itoo, Javed Rana, Javid Dar and Satish Sharma.

“Uncertainty regarding the presence of officials has ended. Now officials till secretary level will be in Jammu. Otherwise, there was confusion among people regarding where to find officials,” the CM’s adviser Nasir Wani told ET. He said the decision on darbar move in its original form would be decided next year.
