Srinagar, December 22 : Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Sunday said that he is cancelling Jammu programme as he is going to stay in Kashmir for one week as cold conditions worsens.
Taking on to micro-blogging platform X, Omar Abdullah wrote, “In light of the severe cold spell in the Kashmir valley & the resultant difficulties with water & electricity supply, I have decided to cancel my forthcoming programmes in Jammu & station myself in Srinagar for the next week to personally monitor the functioning of the Power department & other important departments.
I do appreciate that cancelling my programmes in Jammu will cause some inconvenience to the organisers & I regret the same. However under the circumstances this is the right thing to do & I will make it up to the people/organisations whose programmes have been affected.
I’m on my way back from Jaisalmer as I type and will be back in Srinagar tomorrow morning, reads the post.(GNS)
