JAMMU, Nov 3: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Monday left his official residence on foot for his office at the Civil Secretariat here, marking the resumption of the biannual \u2018Darbar Move\u2019 after a gap of four years.
\nAs he walked through Residency Road and Raghunath Bazar, various trader associations, including Jammu Chamber of Commerce and Industry, accorded him a grand welcome and lauded his decision to revive the age-old tradition that was halted in 2021.
\nThe \u2018Darbar Move\u2019 involves shifting the Jammu and Kashmir government\u2019s offices between Srinagar and Jammu with the changing seasons.
\nThe Civil Secretariat and other move offices closed in Srinagar on October 30 and 31, and started functioning from the winter capital on Monday for the next six months.
\nThe \u2018Darbar Move\u2019 was started by the Dogra rulers nearly 150 years ago. It was halted by LG Sinha in June 2021, citing the administration\u2019s complete transition to e-office, which, he said, would save around Rs 200 crore annually.
\nThe decision drew sharp criticism from various quarters, including Jammu\u2019s business community, which termed the move a blow to trade and the traditional bond between the two regions. They had been pressing for the revival of the practice ever since.
\nOn October 16, Abdullah fulfilled his election promise by reviving the \u2018Darbar Move\u2019, bringing relief to the business community here.
\nAbdullah, accompanied by Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary and minister Javed Rana, left his official residence around 9 am and walked a few kilometres to reach the civil secretariat.
\nTraders turned up in large numbers. They garlanded the chief minister, showered flower petals and distributed sweets amid drumbeats throughout the journey.
\nThe security detail of the chief minister had a tough time managing the surging and enthusiastic crowds as he walked to the secretariat.
\nJammu Chamber of Commerce and Industry President Arun Gupta was among the first ones to greet the CM.<\/p>\n
