Jammu and Kashmir Government Resumes Biannual Darbar Move to Winter Capital Jammu
The Jammu and Kashmir administration resumed its traditional biannual Darbar Move, shifting government offices from Srinagar to Jammu for the winter months. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah received a ceremonial guard of honour at the Civil Secretariat, which was renovated ahead of reopening. Security was heightened across Jammu, and officials, including ministers, were directed to expedite development projects and improve public grievance mechanisms. The Darbar Move, initiated in 1872 by Dogra rulers, continues to facilitate governance and economic links between the two capitals.
