Jammu|Jan, 26 : Asserting that ‘Naya Savera’ (new dawn) has broken out in Jammu and Kashmir, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Monday reiterated the government’s commitment to establish peace and make region prosperous.
Addressing the main Republic Day function in Jammu, LG Sinha paid rich tributes to martyrs and victims of terrorism, natural calamities, and tragic incidents.
Saluting the courage and bravery of security forces, LG Sinha said, ” Operation Sindoor sent a clear message to the world that terrorism will not be tolerated under any circumstances.” He praised the armed forces for eliminating Pakistani terrorists involved in the Pahalgam terror attack and paid homage to its victims, as well as those who lost their lives in the unfortunate Nowgam blast. The Lieutenant Governor also acknowledged the suffering caused by recent natural calamities in the region, paying tributes to those who lost their lives.

On tourism LG Sinha said it continues to play a pivotal role in J&K’s economy. He noted that from January to November 2025, over 1 crore 61 lakh tourists visited the Union Territory, though the figure remains slightly lower than the previous year due to the impact of the Pahalgam terror attack and natural disasters.
