Manoj Sinha said his role as Jammu and Kashmir lieutenant governor would be collaborative, with a shared goal of ensuring development for all sections.

Ahead of Omar Abdullah’s swearing-in as the chief minister of Jammu & Kashmir, lieutenant governor Manoj Sinha reflected on the changing political landscape in the union territory (UT). In an interview with The Indian Express, Manoj Sinha urged the new chief minister and the elected MLAs to focus on the people’s mandate for peace, prosperity, and development of Jammu and Kashmir. 

“My support will be with the new government,” Manoj Sinha affirmed, stressing the importance of financial stability and development for J&K’s future.

Manoj Sinha emphasised that militancy in the region was nearing its end, with candidates campaigning well into the night and voters enthusiastically participating. He noted the absence of violence, rigging, or re-polls, which he said demonstrated the significant shift in J&K’s political environment. “People voted in large numbers,” the lieutenant governor said, underscoring the increased voter turnout as a sign of the region’s progress.

When asked about the limited powers of the UT assembly, Sinha assured that his role as L-G would be collaborative, with a shared goal of ensuring development for all sections of society. He also dismissed concerns of a potential tussle between the chief minister and the L-G, promising to maintain a harmonious working relationship.

While refraining from speculating on the timeline for J&K’s statehood, Sinha reiterated the central government’s commitment to its eventual restoration, in line with earlier promises made by the Prime Minister and Home Minister.

The oath of office and secrecy will also be administered to Abdullah’s chosen ministers by Manoj Sinha at 11.30am at the Sher-i-Kashmir International Convention Centre (SKICC).

Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Manoj Sinha, made a notable statement ahead of Omar Abdullah’s much-anticipated oath-taking ceremony as the new Chief Minister of the union territory. Speaking to the press, Sinha extended his good wishes to the incoming government and assured his full support for their initiatives aimed at the region’s development.

Sinha emphasized the importance of unity and progress in J&K, saying, “The people of Jammu and Kashmir have voted for a government that reflects their aspirations. I assure my complete cooperation to the new leadership in achieving peace, prosperity, and growth for the region.”

Omar Abdullah, the leader of the National Conference, is set to take the oath as Chief Minister following his party’s victory in the recent elections.

As the swearing-in ceremony draws near, the mood in J&K remains optimistic, with citizens hoping for a brighter future under the new administration.
