Srinagar, Aug 1 (JKNS): Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday said that tourism is central to Jammu and Kashmir’s economy and has the potential to employ lakhs, while responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s earlier appreciation of his visit to the Sabarmati Riverfront and the Statue of Unity.
In a reply to PM Modi’s post on X, Omar Abdullah as per news agency JKNS wrote, “I’m a firm believer that travel broadens the horizons & the mind @narendramodi ji. It’s especially important for us in J&K as tourism is a crucial part of our economy & has the potential to gainfully employ lakhs of people. That’s why I & my colleagues are trying to convince more of our fellow Indians to visit J&K, especially after the tragic events earlier this year.” (JKNS)
