| Jammu feels betrayed, panic in Kashmir with new domicile law: YLA | | |
EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, July 1: Calling domicile law anti-people, the Young Leaders Association (YLA) Jammu and Kashmir opposed the Domicile certificates saying that the measures are aimed to disempower the PRC holders politically and economically. As the new domicile law came into the picture after the abrogation of Article 370 and Article 35A, which gave special status to the erstwhile state by prohibiting outsiders from buying land, and in reserving jobs for residents of J&K.
YLA president Maheshwar Vishwakarma said,” The youth of Jammu and Kashmir will lose jobs to the new domiciles. Unemployment is already at peak in J&K and with new domiciles, PRC holders will lose the remaining jobs and seats in education as well. We have been deceived by BJP and no one else. Moreover, the majority of people who are eligible for a domicile certificate have opted for Jammu instead of Kashmir. It proves that the government’s aim is to settle non-residents. As we can see issues of militancy, terrorism, unemployment, development and corruption have taken a back seat. We have been failed by a biased media which never gave space to the true opinion of Jammu.” YLA spokesperson Shah Imtizaj said, “We will witness a cultural dilution as part of the demographic change. The structure of law is also vague as well. Who will validate and verify how long a person has stayed in Jammu and Kashmir? Procuring school certificates is not rocket science. So, the government’s intentions are quite clear. Demographic change is the driving agenda behind this. The speed with which the BJP is working towards decimating our identity, I fear that after 20 years one will not find Dogras and Kashmiris in Jammu and Kashmir”.
