Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah criticised the Centre’s decision to rename MGNREGA, likening the new title to a Bollywood film and objecting to the removal of Mahatma Gandhi’s name from the scheme. He also raised concerns over the scheme’s revised funding structure, reviewed snowfall preparedness across the region, and reiterated his consistent stance on governance and statehood.
