Omar Abdullah, after meeting Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha at Raj Bhavan on October 11, 2024, officially staked his claim to form the new government in Jammu and Kashmir. He submitted letters of support from the Congress, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), CPI(M), and independent candidates. Omar requested the LG to schedule the oath-taking ceremony soon, with the hope of holding it by October 16. However, due to Jammu and Kashmir’s status as a Union Territory under central rule, the process involves additional steps, including clearance from Rashtrapati Bhavan and the Home Ministry.Omar highlighted that the new government aims to address major issues in Jammu and Kashmir, including dispelling negative propaganda and working towards the restoration of statehood. He emphasized that Jammu will not be sidelined under his leadership.
