Early Times Report
JAMMU, Apr 23: Minister of State for Revenue Sunil Kumar Sharma who recently announced that government has intends issuing of Permanent Residence Certificates (PRCs) at school level Thursday denied that it was aimed at making refugees, outsiders state subjects.
While talking to Early Times, MoS Revenue said that no rule in issuing of PRCs has been changed or amended. He added that only concerned SDMs, ACRs or ADCs or DCs are authorized to issue PRCs and the issuing of PRCs at school level will help the government to reach out to those children's who are poor and whose parents cannot afford to reach the office of PRC issuing authority.
"Under this policy we are collecting the details pertaining to those school children through head of the institution whose parents are the state subjects , while their children's are without PRCs" said Sharma. He added that PRC is issued only to those school children's whose parents have a valid state subject.
He said that after collecting the details from the concerned Patwari, Naib Tehsildars and Tehsildars has been assigned with the job to reach out to those children's and fulfill the required formalities so that PRCs could be issued to them.
"What is wrong in facilitating issuance of PRCs at school level-this will give benefit to under privileged children living in far flung areas of the state as it will not make their parents to suffer for want of PRCs which has a legal document in state of Jammu and Kashmir" said Sunil Sharma. He said that the issue of Refugee is a human issue, added that Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Syed and Revenue Minister Javed Mustafa Mir has already made an elaborated speech in Jammu and Kashmir Assembly on the Refugee issue.
Sharma said that the statement of senior legislator Hakim Muhammad Yasin that the move is aimed at to make non-state subjects doing and residing illegally in Jammu as the subject of Jammu and Kashmir is far far away from the reality.
Yasin in an interview with a Srinagar based news agency has said that BJP in its election manifesto had promised to border residents and West Pakistan Hindu refugees that it will grant them state subject rights, the move that was resented by the people of Kashmir.
"When BJP failed in its designs, it has come up with a new plan and have now started issuing PRC's at school level especially in Jammu Division. This is an attempt to change the demography of the state. We should keep this fact in mind that there are numerous illegal colonies in Jammu where non-state subjects reside. Besides, there are thousands of non-subjects who work as traders, laborers, and businessmen in Jammu and there is quite possibility that the children of these people will get PRC's and after a decade or a two, the State will witness a major shift in demographic character," Yasin said.
Pertinently, a few days ago, BJP leader and Minister of State for Revenue Sunil Kumar Sharma during his visit to Katra had said that the government has taken up a project to issue Permanent Resident Certificate and caste certificates at the school level. The Minister had added that the government have started the project in Kishtwar district on a trial basis in 17 Schools and have issued over 500 certificates so far. |
