“I have already told Omar Sahab that he must fulfill the promises he made,” Malik stated firmly.
He further emphasized that the assembly exists due to the support of the people who elected us, and its vibrancy is a result of the representatives sent by the public. “It is our duty to work for them and address every issue concerning Jammu and Kashmir,” he added.
Malik expressed satisfaction with the 2025 budget, stated that Chief Minister Omar Abdullah had informed the assembly about plans to generate revenue.
Regarding the opposition, he criticized them for lacking vision and merely creating unnecessary disruptions.
