| Chaman demands compensation for border migrants | | | Early Times Reporter
Jammu | Mar 9
Accusing the congress leaders and its allies of having communal mindset, the former union minister of state for defence, Prof. Chaman Lal Gupta has questioned their bona fides that they should explain that why the compensation of the lands has not been paid to the farmers whose crops were damaged and they suffered during the period when there was army build up along the Indo-Pak in wake of the terrorists attack on the parliament. He said that government have not been paid the compensation despite expiry of over five years as the compensation was held up by the state government on the plea that these lands belong to the custodian department. Addressing a gathering and Ckakia close to the Indo-Pak border in Hiranagar sector, Prof. Gupta observed that the virus of communalism diseasing the minds of the congress leaders and their allies in the coalition both in the state as also at the centre, is dangerously affecting the whole polity of the country. These rulers should also explain whether these refuges and others are not farmers who are being denied compensation in the border areas on the plea that lands allotted to them belong to the custodian department, he added. Lashing upon the congress, PDP and National Conference, Prof. Gupta said that it was a strange situation that a full fledged custodian department still continues for guarding the properties of those who have opted for Pakistan during the troubled days of sad partition of the country in 1947, but no such a body has been created for protecting the properties of those who have been forced by the terrorists and fundamentalists to become destitutes and refugees within their own country for the past about 20 years now. He alleged that the congress led coalition has sabotaged the Rs. 2800 Crores action plan evolved by NDA government for settlement of migrants for the valley of Kashmir who also includes 6000 families of the Muslims although the rehabilitation of all the migrants of Kashmir and others in their respective districts was in the national interest. |
