J&K Cabinet To Meet In Jammu Today
The Jammu and Kashmir Cabinet, headed by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, is scheduled to meet in Jammu today at 3:30 PM, marking its first meeting in the winter capital following the recent Darbar Move and the first such meeting there with the Cabinet at its full sanctioned strength since the elected government assumed office in October 2024.
The meeting will be held in Jammu and attended by all members of the Council of Ministers, including the four ministers inducted during the Cabinet expansion last month.
The meeting comes weeks after the October 27 expansion, when Ali Mohammad Sagar, Mir Saifullah, Shamim Firdous and Altaf Ahmad Wani were inducted into the Council of Ministers.
With their induction and the removal of Satish Sharma, the Council of Ministers reached its maximum permissible strength of nine members, including the Chief Minister.
Besides Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, the Cabinet comprises Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Kumar Choudhary and ministers Sakina Itoo, Javed Ahmad Rana, Javid Ahmad Dar, Ali Mohammad Sagar, Mir Saifullah, Shamim Firdous and Altaf Ahmad Wani.
The expanded Cabinet had earlier met in Srinagar on October 27, shortly after the swearing-in ceremony of the newly inducted ministers.
