| Apni Party criticizes Govt for delay in implementation of SRO-425 | | | Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Sept 28: Apni Party General Secretary Rafi Ahmad Mir on Monday urged the J&K government to implement the one-time employment scheme approved by the government of India for non migrant Kashmiri Pandit families without any further delay.
Expressing solidarity with the non-migrant Pandit families who are on hunger strike for the last nine-days in the premises of Ganpatyar temple in Srinagar, Mir said that it is highly unfortunate that the J&K government is sleeping over this important issue for the last many years despite clear cut orders from the union government and the High Court of Jammu and Kashmir.
Apni Party general secretary hailed the resolve of non-migrant Kashmiri Pandit families who did not leave their homes in Valley even during the worst period of turmoil in 1990s. “The Lt. Governor Manoj Sinha must order a time bound probe in delayed implementation of SRO-425 by virtue of which around 500 jobs were to be provided to the educated unemployed youth of Kashmiri non-migrant Pandit families. These families are living in penury and they have pinned their hopes on this employment package,” he added. Mir urged the Lt. Governor to take all concrete measures to redress the grievances of Kashmiri Pandit community including around 800 families who have not migrated to outside Valley. “Besides implementation of the job package, the J&K government must ensure monthly financial aid to these non migrant families, accommodation and extension of benefits under Migrant Welfare Fund,” he demanded.
