“Jammu and Kashmir is the pride of every Indian. Together we have to take J-K to new heights. I have been told that since 2019 till now almost 30,000 govt posts have been filled in Jammu and Kashmir, out of which almost 20,000 jobs have been given in the last 1-1.5 years,” he said.

“The people of Jammu and Kashmir have always emphasized on transparency. Whenever I used to meet the people of Jammu and Kashmir earlier, I always felt their pain. This was the pain of corruption in the systems. People of J-K hate corruption. The youth who are joining government services today have to prioritize transparency,” added PM Modi.
