Darbar Move Unlikely to Resume This Winter in Jammu and Kashmir

CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: The historic Darbar Move, a 150-year-old biannual practice of shifting the Jammu and Kashmir government between Srinagar and Jammu, is unlikely to resume this winter. Traditionally, the government offices and personnel moved between the two capitals to accommodate the summer and winter seasons.

However, due to logistical and security concerns, coupled with the evolving administrative structure following the abrogation of Article 370, officials suggest that the practice may be suspended indefinitely. The potential discontinuation of the Darbar Move has sparked debates about its impact on the region’s governance and economy, particularly in Jammu, which benefits from the influx of government officials during the winter months.
