“Srinagar being summer capital of the state is not only face of the state but situation which prevails here and the developmental scenario which is initiated in the city has its own ramification on the entire

glory”, said the Chief Minister Omar Abdullah while presiding over the Srinagar District Board Meeting at SKICC.
