Governor’s ‘indictment’ proof of J-K government’s failure: Omar Abdullah

Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Tuesday accused the Mehbooba Mufti-led collation government of “failure on all fronts”.

The National Conference leader was referring to Governor N.N. Vohra’s statement during a commemoration function here on Monday in honour of late Chief Minister Mufti Muhammad Sayeed.

Vohra had said the “state faces many problems, some of our own doing and some of others’ contributions”. He urged the Jammu and Kashmir government to perk up its performance.

Abdullah said the Governor’s statement was an “indictment” against the PDP-BJP collation government, proving its failure on all fronts.

He said the situation in the state had drastically deteriorated since the PDP-BJP government assumed power. He said the government’s promise of development was nowhere to be seen.
