Srinagar, June 16: Srinagar will host a three-day national exhibition and public outreach initiative, “Rise in Jammu & Kashmir 2026 – Building the Path Towards Viksit Bharat @ 2047”, from June 17 to 19 at the Sher-i-Kashmir International Conference Centre (SKICC).
Announcing the event at a press conference on Monday, Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha) Ghulam Ali Khatana said the exhibition is aimed at highlighting India’s developmental progress and Jammu and Kashmir’s growing role in the country’s vision of becoming a developed nation by 2047.
Organised by Tarmeh Events under the guidance of Khatana, the exhibition will bring together public sector enterprises, scientific institutions, government departments and development agencies on a common platform.
Khatana said the initiative seeks to connect citizens—particularly youth, students, entrepreneurs, researchers and professionals—with institutions driving development across sectors including infrastructure, science and technology, healthcare, agriculture, education, energy, environment and public service delivery.
He said the exhibition will also create awareness about flagship government programmes, technological advancements and innovation while encouraging public participation in nation-building.
According to the organisers, the event will feature thematic pavilions, technology demonstrations, interactive displays, awareness campaigns and opportunities for direct engagement between institutions and visitors.
Several organisations, including NHPC, BIS, ICMR, ISRO, CSIR, ICAR, APEDA, Northern Railway, IRCTC, POWERGRID, NTPC, REC, TRIFED, NAFED and other public sector and research bodies, are expected to participate.
The organisers said the event is expected to attract students, entrepreneurs, policymakers and members of the public from across Jammu and Kashmir.
