JAMMU, Oct 8: Kashmiri Pandit migrants have expressed their grave concern over the cold response shown by the administration of Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory towards the redressal of their issues including enhancement in monthly cash assistance to relief holders and a government job to atleast one family member who have no source of income other than relief for which they have been observing hunger strike from Oct 2,2020 here at Jagti camp but admin continues to irk the community by maintaining silence, sources said here today.
Under the banner of Jagti Tenement Committee and Soan Kashmir Front J&K Kashmiri Pandit migrants under the leadership of its president Shadi Lal Pandita,have been protesting in favour of their legtimate demands over a week's time now but the administration was quite adamant and calm on the issue and extended no comminique till date to mitigate the genuine problems of striking KPs whose hunger strike entered into7th day today, sources added.
While taking a dig at the cold response shown by the administration of Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory towards the genuine demands of striking KP migrants, Pandita said that this government seems to be a government of deaf, dumb and blind people who miserably have failed to serve the people and provide any succor to the down trodden and underprivileged sections of the society. He also criticized the central government for their narrow vision, complete neglect and step-motherly treatment towards KP community, Pandita added. Addressing the members, Pandita said that today is the 7th day of our hunger strike but the government seems to be in no mood to meet our demands and this indifferent attitude will compell the community members to intensify its struggle to the extent of an agitation for which the administration of Jammu and Kashmir will be responsible itself Pandita added. Pandita said that the monthly cash assistance of relief holders should be enhanced from Rs 13,000 to Rs 25,000 for per family per month with an immediate effect as the livelihood of the relief holders in this era of inflation has gone bad to worse. He said that the government should provide one Job to each migrant family in a house where there is no govt employee in the family for which a package of 20,000 pots should be announced as soon as possible. Out of these twenty thousand posts 5,000 Class IV posts should be given to the unemployed youth of those families who could not send their children for higher education after matriculation due to poverty and exilement, Pandita maintained while talking to EarlyTimes. |
