He added that 25,000 government jobs will be created for the youths of Jammu and Kashmir by 2022 among which almost 3,000 jobs have already been given in the last 17 months.
He also assured people of Jammu and Kashmir that no one will lose their land as the government has enough land for development work.
"The biggest hurdle in the industry in Jammu and Kashmir was that they did not get land if they wanted to set up any industry there. After the withdrawal of (Art)370, we changed the law of the land. Now the situation is such that the industries will be established inside Kashmir," he said.
