After a four-year hiatus, the 150-year-old tradition of 'Darbar Move' has been restored in Jammu and Kashmir by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, reviving the biannual capital shift between Jammu and Srinagar. The return of this practice, which was discontinued in 2021 following the abrogation of Article 370, marks a significant step toward regional balance and economic revitalization for Jammu's business community.
