The MLAs further urged the Chief Minister to take necessary measures for early opening of tourist destinations of Tosamaidan and Doodhpathri in Budgam district, as the livelihoods of the local population depend on these areas.
The legislators also expressed their gratitude to the Chief Minister for recently extending the power amnesty scheme to electricity consumers across Jammu and Kashmir. They lauded the initiative as a significant step towards providing relief to thousands of households grappling with non-payment of timely power bills resulting in interest and penalty on principal amount and making it difficult for them to clear the payments.
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah assured the legislators that the government remains committed to addressing the genuine concerns of the people and emphasized the importance of coordinated efforts between the administration and elected representatives for inclusive development.
