In a recent meeting with Gujjar Basti Bandipora, National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah praised the Jammu and Kashmir government's initiatives aimed at providing free electricity and transport for women.

The introduction of free transportation for women is expected to improve their quality of life significantly. Abdullah assured that NC will uphold its manifesto promises, focusing on marginalized communities' welfare, continuing its legacy of advocacy under the leadership of Chief Minister Omar Abdullah.
