Don't Create Green Corridor For Cavalcade: Omar Abdullah To J&K Top Cop

It must be mentioned that traffic was usually stopped from both sides to allow the unhindered movement of the chief minister's cavalcade in J&K due to security reasons in the past.

In his first people-friendly gesture, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday directed DGP Nalin Prabhat to ensure that no 'green corridor' is created for the CM's movement to inconvenience the common citizens.

It must be mentioned that traffic was usually stopped from both sides to allow the unhindered movement of the chief minister's cavalcade in J&K due to security reasons in the past.

Omar Abdullah said on his X-post handle, "I have spoken to the DG @JmuKmrPolice that there is to be no "green corridor" or traffic stoppage when I move anywhere by road. I have instructed him to minimise public inconvenience & the use of sirens is to be minimal. The use of any stick waving or aggressive gestures is to be totally avoided. I'm asking my cabinet colleagues to follow the same example. In everything our conduct must be people friendly. We are here to serve the people & not to inconvenience them."
