I know it people and the problems they face everyday. What I am striving is to mitigate their sufferings with utmost efforts. I have spent more than 3 crore rupees out of the CDF for the overall development of Beerwah.
I would do more and will kept striving for the peoples’ welfare,” Omar said.The former chief minister maintained that now his critics have to eat their words as the people of Beerwah are witness to the fact that they saw me every next day in middle of them. “BY choosing me as their candidate, they have done a great favour to me. I have resolved that I would return this great favour with best of my capacities and capabilities,” Omar said.He also hailed GOI for the approval of 32 crores meant for the construction of the highway from Budgam to Beerwah.
