Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Monday praised youth from J&K and Ladakh for their courage, resilience and hard work.
Addressing NCC cadets, who participated in Republic Day 2025 parade at Kartavya Path in New Delhi, Omar Abdullah said, “ The pressure on you is far much more than that on us. Earlier the marking system used to be lenient, but now the cutoff in many colleges is 100%. I sometimes think what can you get more than 100 percent.”
Hailing the youth for their commitment to excel in every field, Omar said, “Despite being under so much of pressure you take your time and join NCC… You (NCC Cadets) represent a cross section of Jammu and Kashmir itself, you are from Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh. You represent the unity in diversity.”
The Chief Minister said, “ You (NCC cadets) don’t build relationships only among yourselves but with the youth from different regions of the country.
Trust me the relationships which you formed with your fellow cadets will stay with you life long.”—(KNO)
