The department has also got ₹3.04 crore sanctioned for the project. As per the government notification, of these eight high-end vehicles, four will be used in Delhi, while two each will be kept at the disposal of CM in Srinagar and Jammu.
The social circles were abuzz asking the CM whether he thinks if there are any more important priorities in the UT than buying fresh high-end vehicles for his entourage.
Former Apni Party leader and city mayor Junaid Azim Mattu said that when he was mayor, instead of getting new vehicles he used old ones and got the funds meant for vehicles diverted to developmental works.
