Omar govt ‘restored communication’ with public after six years: NC MLA

Srinagar, Feb: National Conference (NC) Chief Spokesperson and MLA Zadibal, Tanvir Sadiq on Wednesday said that under the leadership of CM Omar Abdullah, the government has “successfully reestablished communication” with the people after a six-year hiatus.
During a tour of Zadibal constituency, Tanvir engaged with the people to assess the impact of the recent heavy rains on ration distribution, power supply and basic utility services. He reached out to the administration to address the challenges faced by the residents and issued directives to expedite solutions, the party said in a statement issued here.
In addition to addressing immediate concerns, the MLA conducted a thorough review of ongoing development projects in the constituency. He ensured that adequate firewood supplies were available at mosques and major shrines.
While engaging with the people, the NC Cheif Spokesperson echoed their shared concerns on various critical issues, highlighting the government’s efforts under Omar Abdullah’s leadership to “reestablish connections” with the people after a six-year absence.
“In the past, government officials rarely ventured into neighbourhoods and communities, leaving ordinary citizens feeling neglected. However, the current scenario has undergone a significant transformation. People now throng the secretariat, elected representatives actively engage with their constituents, and ministers are inundated with delegations seeking their attention. This palpable shift was previously unheard of,” he said.
The NC leader said the forthcoming budget has been crafted with a collaborative approach and promises to usher in a new era of progress and development. “The winds of change are blowing, and the future looks promising,” he added.
Meanwhile, MLA Lal Chowk and Provincial Vice President Kashmir Ahsan Pardesi met with several public and individual delegations at the party headquarters Nawa-e-Subha.
