"(The government will) take measures for sustenance and livelihood of the West Pakistan Refugees," the 16 page document 'Agenda of the Alliance' of PDP-BJP government which was released by Chief Minister Mufti Mohmmad Sayeed today, said here.
There shall be a steering committee comprising of the President of PDP and BJP, and four members each from the parties for overseeing the implementation of the Agenda.
The document, which is guiding framework for governance of the coalition government in J&K, favoured extension of all benefits accruing to the people living on the LoC to the people living on the International Border.
