| Governor's Admin rectifies wrong committed by NC-Cong regime | | Restores RBA status to displaced KPs from backwards areas | | Early Times Report
Jammu, May 28: The Governor's administration has undone the wrong committed by the National Conference- Congress regime. It has restored the backward status of the displaced Kashmiri Pandits, who had migrated from far-flung areas of the Valley.
The migrants from backward areas of Valley were deprived of backward status by NC -Congress coalition led by Omar Abdullah on the plea that these people no longer reside in the backward areas ignoring that they were forced to flee from Valley for security reasons as they were facing threat from Pak sponsored terrorism that left hundreds of members of the community dead and their property and places of worship in ruins.
The demand, it is in place to mention here was turned down by the former coalition government headed by Omar Abdullah. The people doing business in Valley or the agriculturists and orchardists lost their entire business and had to remain totally dependent on meagre cash doles granted by the government.
The condition of the displaced families turned miserable due to their mass migration and they we're dependent on support.
However, the decision of previous NC, Congress Government added salt to their injuries by denying RBA status to the displaced Pandits from backward areas of Valley.
But the constant struggle of displaced people bore fruit and Governor administration conceded the demand.
The order in this regard was issued by Principal Secretary to State Government Rohit Kansal. The order says that the people of RBA areas who were forced to migrate from one division of the State to another division or another State are entitled to RBA status.
The decision has been welcomed by displaced people from Valley who termed it a victory of their struggle and positive role played by Relief and Rehabilitation Commissioner, Secretary Revenue and Relief as well as Principal Secretary to Government, advisor in charge Relief as well as Governor Satya Pal Malik. |
