Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Monday said that the file relating to the Union Territory’s business rules is still pending and has not yet been cleared.
Speaking to reporters, Omar said the government is awaiting the final decision on the file. He, however, assured that if there is any further delay in its approval, the matter will be taken up with the Central Government to expedite the process.
“The business rules file is still pending. We are waiting for it, and if it gets delayed further, we will take up the issue with the Centre,” the Chief Minister said.
