Srinagar, Oct 27 (KNS): National Conference MLA Salman Ali Sagar on Tuesday said the Cabinet expansion in Jammu and Kashmir had completed the strength of the Council of Ministers, while acknowledging that some legislators were disappointed over being left out.
Speaking to news agency Kashmir News Service (KNS), the Hazratbal MLA said Chief Minister Omar Abdullah had filled the available ministerial positions through the latest expansion and replacement of a minister who was dropped.
He said the party had attempted to ensure representation from different regions of Jammu and Kashmir, including North Kashmir, South Kashmir and Central Kashmir.
Sagar said it was natural for legislators to aspire for ministerial positions, but the party leadership had to consider various factors while finalising the Cabinet.

"Everyone has desires and aspirations, and that is legitimate. However, the leadership has its own compulsions and limitations," he said.
The NC leader expressed gratitude to the party leadership, saying efforts had been made to ensure appropriate representation to different regions of the Union Territory.
Four ministers were inducted into the Omar Abdullah-led government on Tuesday, completing the nine-member Council of Ministers, including the chief minister. (KNS)!
