JK News Today
Srinagar, December 22: In an unprecedented move to stand by his people in the times of hardships caused by harsh weather conditions, CM Omar Abdullah cancelled all his scheduled programmes in Jammu and decided to be Srinagar for the whole of next week.
He wrote on X :”In light of the severe cold spell in the Kashmir valley & the resultant difficulties with water & electricity supply, I have decided to cancel my forthcoming programmes in Jammu & station myself in Srinagar for the next week to personally monitor the functioning of the Power department & other important departments.
I do appreciate that cancelling my programmes in Jammu will cause some inconvenience to the organisers & I regret the same. However under the circumstances this is the right thing to do & I will make it up to the people/organisations whose programmes have been affected.
I’m on my way back from Jaisalmer as I type and will be back in Srinagar tomorrow morning.”
