Chief Minister Omar Abdullah chaired a high-level meeting to review the preparedness of the administration in the event of snowfall and likely precipitation spell predicted over the coming weekend.
The meeting focused on assessing the readiness of departments across both Kashmir and Jammu divisions and fine-tuning response mechanisms to ensure minimal disruption to public life.
Addressing the meeting, the Chief Minister observed that winter preparation plans in both divisions are largely on track but stressed that the real test lies in effective implementation on the ground. He noted that while precipitation is expected this weekend, it may not be as widespread as later in the season, providing the administration with a valuable opportunity to refine and strengthen preparedness plans.
“Winter preparedness plans are on pace, but the test of any plan is in its implementation. This expected weather spell gives us time to refine our preparations before the more severe conditions set in,” the Chief Minister said.
