Srinagar, Apr 02 (NVI) : Jammu Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Thursday said that stocks of LPG and other essential fuels in the Union Territory are adequate at present, while cautioning that a prolonged international conflict could impact supplies in the future.
Speaking to reporters, the Chief Minister said that Jammu and Kashmir, like the rest of the country, has no direct control over global developments. He, however, assured that the current reserves of essential commodities, including fuel, are sufficient for the next 10–15 days.
He added that if the conflict continues for a longer duration and shortages emerge at the national level, the Union Territory could also face disruptions. “As of now, there is no immediate cause for concern,” he said.
Referring to a recent meeting convened by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Abdullah said the Centre has assured uninterrupted supply of essentials through multiple channels.
He further said that the administration is closely monitoring the situation and any changes will be promptly communicated to the public.(NVI)
