The Chief Minister said that this is the first time we have held a cabinet meeting outside Jammu or Srinagar. Although we followed the government’s agenda during the meeting, we did not come to Pahalgam only to complete administrative or government work, we have come here to show that bloodshed and violence will not be able to derail our agenda of development, prosperity and representation of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Through this meeting, we want to express our gratitude and salute the people of Kashmir, especially the people of Pahalgam for a strong trend against their courage, unity and violence after the April 22 attack.
