Jammu : The President J&K National Conference, Dr. Farooq Abdullah Thursday emphasized the importance of addressing the alienation felt by traders in the Jammu region, saying under the able leadership of Omar Abdullah, the government is committed to taking transformative steps to achieve this goal.
Addressing a gathering at Yoga Ashram Katra Dr. Farooq reiterated the importance of ensuring that the local residents of Jammu and Kashmir benefit from the ongoing tourism and development in their region.

Our manifesto clearly outlines our vision and mission, which prioritizes ensuring that the people of Jammu and Kashmir receive maximum benefits from development initiatives. I am confident that the legitimate demands of the people of Katra will be addressed. The residents of Katra have always served devotees with open arms, and it is imperative that their interests are protected. Under the leadership of Omar Sahib, the government will not allow any harm to come to the people of Katra. This is a government for the people, and serving the public interest is our top priority.”

It is not just Kashmir, but the entire region of Jammu and Kashmir that will move forward on the path of progress and development under the leadership of Omar Abdullah.”
