He conducted an on-site inspection to assess the pace of work and address any challenges affecting its smooth execution. A team from the Directorate of Inspections & Quality Control (DIQC) accompanied him, conducting an assessment of the materials used in the on-going construction.

Focusing on environmental concerns, the Deputy Chief Minister also visited several mining sites to evaluate compliance with ecological norms. He emphasized the need for responsible mining practices and directed officials to ensure strict adherence to environmental regulations. Instructions were issued to enforce measures against illegal mining and implement necessary corrective actions to mitigate environmental risks.

During the visit, he interacted with local residents and officials, reaffirming the administration’s commitment to addressing public concerns and expediting development projects efficiently and responsibly. He was accompanied by senior officers from the local administration, the District Mineral Officer (DMO) Jammu, and officials from the R&B Department.
