SRINAGAR, May 7: All India Migrant Camps Coordination Committee (AIMCCC) has expressed dismay over the pitiable condition of the migrant labourers and Kashmiri Pandits who have not been able to reach their homes despite assurances from the people at helm.
AIMCC Chief Desh Ratten Pandita felt great sorrow over present situation in different parts of the country. Pandita said that after the end of second phase of lockdown the people who were stranded and wanted to go back had hope that they would reach their respective homes right from Kashmir to Kanyakumari.
“Labourers, students, private employees and others wanted to go back but vote bank politics ensured that this did not happen. The vote bank politics has directly impacted the evacuation of such people. This was despite the fact that some trains were arranged for their return and special buses were also pressed into service,” said Pandita.
Pandita said that there was less sympathy and more vote bank politics in this whole episode with everyone crying in order to secure their vote bank that is the labourers. He said that the government should help the people since they consisted of students and poor as well as needy who did not have any money with them during the times of Pandemic.
“The government nominated so many nodal officers in order to solve problems and facilitate return policy of such people, but unfortunately when these nodal officers were contacted their mobile phones were either busy or were switched off. It is a shame for such officials that despite hefty salaries these people are not willing to work,” said Pandita.
“Up to this time these poor and the Kashmiri Pandit students and people are not being allowed to come their homes since the KPs are neither vote bank nor do they have any big political power. We see there was confusion among different officials or nodal officers no one was ready to guide needy people,” said Pandita.
Pandita requested the government to arrange return policy for all needy people including KPs, who under blockade in different parts of the country. He said that the government worked day and night to get rich people return from abroad since they were VVIPs but no such provision is applied for poor people and the Kashmiri Pandits.
