List of Prime and Chief Ministers of Jammu and Kashmir

List of Prime and Chief Ministers of Jammu and Kashmir

The following individuals have served as Prime Minister or Chief Minister of the state of Jammu and Kashmir.[1] Due to its special status under the Indian constitution, prior to 1965, the state selected its own "wazir-e-azam" (prime minister) and "sadr-e-riyasat" (president). However, in 1965, the state constitution was amended, and the offices of prime minister and president were renamed chief minister and governor respectively.[2] These changes went into effect on 30 March 1965 when the ruling prime minister, Ghulam Mohammed Sadiq, was sworn in as the first chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir.
