LG Sinha Greenlights Plan for Jammu and Kashmir Guest House Building in New Delhi

SRINAGAR: Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, on Saturday, gave the green light to a proposal for acquiring land to construct a new building for the Jammu and Kashmir Guest House in New Delhi.

The Administrative Council (AC) meeting, chaired by LG Sinha, approved the Hospitality & Protocol Department’s proposal to purchase land for the construction of the new J&K Guest House building in the National Capital. The estimated cost for the project stands at Rs 26 crore.

LG’s Advisor Rajeev Rai Bhatnagar, Chief Secretary Dr Arun Kumar Mehta, and IAS Principal Secretary to LG D Mandeep Kumar Bhandari were among the attendees at the meeting.

Following the enactment of the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019, a considerable portion of the J&K Guest House at Chanakyapuri (CPGH), New Delhi, was allocated to the Union Territory of Ladakh. Consequently, the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir retained only 10 staff quarters and Block-C of CPGH.

“The additional building will optimise accommodation for common citizens and patients of UT of J&K who frequent the National Capital City, enhancing the overall availability of lodging facilities,” said an official spokesperson.
