J&K Govt Terminates 154 Government Employees

In a resolute effort to uphold peace and security in Jammu and Kashmir, a total of 154 government employees have been discharged from their positions due to their involvement in terrorist activities, announced Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha.

Speaking at the prestigious ET Now Global Business Summit 2024, Lieutenant Governor Sinha underscored the ongoing commitment to identifying and taking decisive action against individuals associated with terrorism, reaffirming the administration’s unwavering stance on the matter.

Highlighting the underlying causes of terrorism and separatism in the region, Lieutenant Governor Sinha attributed much of the unrest to the now-repealed Article 370.

He criticized previous administrations for exacerbating turmoil in Jammu and Kashmir and commended the current administration for its efforts to restore peace and stability.

Notably, he pointed to a significant shift in the region’s landscape, with a marked decline in instances of stone pelting and strikes orchestrated by external forces, particularly Pakistan.

Lieutenant Governor Sinha also emphasized the growing display of national pride among the youth, indicating a positive shift in sentiments towards a more united and inclusive future.

Furthermore, Lieutenant Governor Sinha highlighted the tangible progress made in revitalizing the socio-economic fabric of Jammu and Kashmir. The recent reopening of cinema halls after a three-decade hiatus and the bustling activity in local markets serve as visible indicators of the region’s gradual return to normalcy.

These developments not only signify a tangible improvement in the quality of life for residents but also reflect the administration’s concerted efforts to revive economic activities and promote social cohesion.

Crediting Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to addressing the region’s long-standing challenges, Lieutenant Governor Sinha reiterated the transformative impact of the abrogation of Article 370.

He underscored the region’s newfound trajectory of progress and development, aligning with the broader national agenda of inclusive growth and prosperity.

The developments in Jammu and Kashmir underscore a pivotal shift towards peace, stability, and progress, reflecting the collective determination of the administration to usher in a new era of development and prosperity in the region.

The decisive actions taken against individuals involved in terrorism, coupled with the concerted efforts to revitalize socio-economic activities, signify a promising path forward for Jammu and Kashmir, underpinned by a renewed sense of hope and optimism.
