People are standing as there is no place to sit. This is the love of Kashmir for PM Modi. People are standing as there is no place to sit. This is the love of Kashmir for PM Modi.

Additionally, the distribution of appointment orders to new government recruits underscored the administration’s focus on inclusive growth and employment generation.

The Delhi-Amritsar-Katra expressway, valued at Rs 10,995 crore, is projected to finish by November 2025. Construction of the Qazigund-Shopian-Pulwama-Srinagar NH444 at a cost of Rs 849 crore, among other approved highway projects.”
