Omar Abdullah will be sworn in as the first chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir since it became a Union Territory, after his National Conference party won the region’s first Assembly election following the removal of Article 370. The oath-taking ceremony will be held today at the Sher-i-Kashmir International Convention Centre (SKICC) in Srinagar at 11:30 am. Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha will administer the oath to Abdullah and his council of ministers. This is the first time a chief minister will assume office in the region since its reorganization in 2019.
