SRINAGAR: Peoples Conference president Sajad Gani Lone on Thursday criticised Chief Minister Omar Abdullah over the decision to hold a review meeting of his 19-month-old government at Dachigam National Park in Srinagar.
In a post on X, Lone termed the move unusual and alleged that the Chief Minister appeared “tourist to the core”, referring to the choice of venue.
So this is the bombshell threatened by CM sahib. Tourist to the core. A trip to the scenic and beautiful Dachigam.
Dachigam is actually symbolic for today’s congregation. It is secluded, isolated, entry is restricted. That actually sums up state of the present government.…

He further compared the setting of Dachigam with the functioning of the government, stating that its secluded and restricted nature reflected what he described as an “aloof and isolated” administration.
Lone also made sarcastic remarks suggesting that MLAs had been taken to the wildlife area for the meeting and would be instructed to either “fall in line” or face consequences, as stated in his social media post.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, along with ministers and MLAs of the National Conference, is holding a day-long off-site review and strategy session at Dachigam National Park. The meeting is underway, and its agenda and outcomes have not yet been disclosed.
