Luxury Over Livelihood: Omar Abdullah's Govt Spends ₹3.04 Crore on Cars While People's Demands Go Unheard

"As Jammu & Kashmir struggles with unmet promises, the CM sanctions eight high-end vehicles solely for his use, drawing sharp criticism over misplaced priorities".


In a move that has sparked outrage across Jammu & Kashmir, the government led by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has sanctioned a staggering ₹3.04 crore for the purchase of eight new luxury vehicles exclusively for the CM's use. While the people of the state continue to grapple with unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, and unfulfilled promises made during elections, the decision reflects a glaring disconnect between the ruling elite and the common populace.

This extravagant expenditure comes at a time when basic amenities like roads,Electricity, healthcare, and education remain in shambles across the region. The National Conference, led by Omar Abdullah, campaigned on lofty promises of development and job creation, yet those pledges have largely gone unfulfilled. Instead of addressing pressing public issues, the government appears more focused on self-indulgence, showcasing a blatant disregard for the suffering of the people.

Critics argue that this lavish spending raises serious questions about the government's priorities and accountability. Citizens are demanding a transparent account of the funds being spent on the Chief Minister's luxury, especially when the same government has failed to deliver on its electoral commitments.

This decision has left many asking: Is this the "development" the National Conference promised? With each passing day, the gap between the CM’s luxury lifestyle and the needs of the people widens, exposing a government more concerned with comfort than service.

It’s high time Omar Abdullah's administration re-evaluates its priorities and addresses the real issues plaguing the state. The people of J&K deserve better than hollow promises and misplaced extravagance.
