Today marks a significant milestone in the history of Jammu and Kashmir as the newly elected Chief Minister, along with five other ministers, including the Deputy Chief Minister, took the oath of office at SKICC. This event is not only a victory for the individuals assuming office but also for the voters who placed their trust in the party and its alliance partners. The people of Jammu and Kashmir have spoken, and it is now the responsibility of the new government to honor that trust.
The Chief Minister is stepping into a role fraught with immense challenges. Our Union Territory continues to face internal and external pressures that demand resilience, strategic leadership, and a commitment to the welfare of every citizen. From the economic revival to peacebuilding, the road ahead is complex, yet full of opportunity. As the head of this new government, the Chief Minister must ensure that the administration’s decisions bring peace, prosperity, and development across all regions.
At the heart of this new chapter is the 54-point election manifesto, a document that resonated with voters during the election campaign. The promises made must not be forgotten. They are a beacon of hope for those who have long yearned for better infrastructure, robust governance, and sustained development. From empowering local businesses to providing better healthcare, education, and security, these pledges now need to be translated into action.
We have faith in the ability of the new Chief Minister and the team to lead effectively, but we also recognize the weight of expectations placed upon them. It is crucial that the promises made on the campaign trail are kept, and that this government remains transparent, inclusive, and accountable to the people.
The journey ahead is challenging, but with dedication, unity, and a steadfast focus on the wellbeing of the citizens, this new government has the potential to pave the way for a brighter future for Jammu and Kashmir. The people are watching with hope and belief in the vision that was laid out before them. Now is the time for action.
