The situation in Jammu and Kashmir is normal and people are participating in the development process, Lt Governor G C Murmu said on Wednesday assuring no stone would be left unturned for the rapid development of the Union Territory.
The administration is reviewing the situation continuously and all the formal communication channels would be restored in the coming days, he said.
"Jammu, of course, was normal and the other part (Kashmir) is also normal. The people are cooperative and they have understood and are now participating in the development process," Murmu told reporters after inaugurating the upgraded Maulana Azad Stadium here.
The stadium was renovated at a cost of Rs 40 crore under Prime Minister's Development Package to host national and international cricket matches. It is the first such facility in Jammu and Kashmir.
Asked about the partial restoration of the Internet services in Kashmir and 2G mobile internet services in five districts of Jammu region after being snapped in August last year following abrogation of Article 370 and bifurcation of the erstwhile state into two Union Territories, he said "this is the beginning and we are reviewing the situation continuously.
"We are hopeful of restoring the normal communication channels in the coming days. We will see how it is going to be utilized and accordingly relax everything," Murmu said.
About reports claiming involvement of arrested Deputy Superintendent of police Davinder Singh in Pulwama terror attack on a CRPF convoy last year, the LG said "It is a matter of investigation and if he is involved it will come out. I will not make any further comment on that."
"We will not leave any stone unturned for the development of J&K," he said adding "we would like to encourage the people's participation from the grass-root level for overall development of village, localities and regions."
