Governor, UT of J&K to take cognizance of DPs legitimate final settlement on priority and stress upon the Central Govt. for the early acceptance and implementation of said report which ensures payment of Rs 30 Lacs as ex-gratia relief to each DP family alongwith reservations for their wards in govt. services, technical institutions till POK is liberated and the assessment of their loss of lives and properties are made.
