Jammu, Dec 7: While demanding restoration of the 149-year-old practice of ‘Darbar Move’, which was ended by the administration under the Lt Governor last year, the NC said that this decision has badly affected the economy of both the capital cities. “Around 8,000-9,000 employees working in civil secretariats, with headquarters in Jammu and Srinagar, used to shift from one headquarter to another. It was a unique practice which had strengthened the relations of the people in the two regions sharing their culture, secular fabric, and socialism as well”, the party mentioned in its resolution. “The move used to boost economic activities as well in both the capitals. Ending this practice not only will shatter communal harmony, brotherhood, and strong relations between Dogra, Kashmiri, and Ladakhi culture but has also brought commercial activities to a standstill,” the resolution read. |
