SRINAGAR: The Jammu and Kashmir Cabinet is scheduled to meet on August 4 under the chairmanship of Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, amid continuing speculation over a possible expansion or reshuffle of the Council of Ministers. The meeting will be held at 4 p.m. in Srinagar. The meeting has attracted attention following speculation about changes in the Cabinet, particularly after remarks made by the Chief Minister earlier this month. Ahead of the National Conference’s statehood protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on July 20, Omar Abdullah had told a local news channel that the long-awaited Cabinet expansion or reshuffle could take place either before the protest or shortly afterwards. No official announcement has been made so far regarding any expansion or reshuffle, and the government has not indicated whether the issue will figure in the August 4 Cabinet meeting.
