Overview of New Government Schemes in Jammu and Kashmir: The Government of Jammu and Kashmir has introduced over 80 new schemes aimed at benefiting the local populace. This move marks a significant milestone following the abrogation of Article 370, as the Indian constitution now fully applies to the Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory. These schemes include various central government initiatives and sponsored programs currently operational in the region.
Under the leadership of Manoj Sinha, these 80+ schemes encompass a wide range of sectors including rural development, finance, youth affairs, and housing & urban development. Following the repeal of Article 35A and 370, this initiative is viewed as a major step toward the development of the Union Territory.
