| Administration failed to revive shattered confidence of displaced Hindus | | 520 migrants ‘return’ to Valley only for taking up jobs under PM’s package but they are living in exclusive colonies set-up for them | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 11: Notwithstanding tall claims of the J&K administration on the social media, only 520 Kashmiri migrants have returned to the Valley but only for taking up the jobs under the Prime Minister’s Development Package 2015 after the abrogation of Article370.
As per record placed on the floor of the Upper House of the Parliament, those who returned to Kashmir Valley are only those who have been recruited under the Prime Minister’s special employment package. The UT administration has failed to convince even a single migrant family to return to their native places without Prime Minister’s employment package.
Those who returned for taking jobs under the Prime Minister’s Development Package are living in special colonies set up for them but could not dare to live at their native places due to fear of terrorists.
Replying to a question of Anil Desai, the Minister of State for Home Affairs, Nityanand Rai informed the Rajya Sabha that “as per the information provided by the Government of Jammu & Kashmir, after the abrogation of Article 370, a total of 520 migrants have returned to Kashmir for taking up the jobs under the Prime Minister’s Development Package-2015”.
The Minister informed that under the J&K Migrant Immovable Property (Preservation, Protection & Restraint on Distress Sales) Act, 1997, District Magistrates (DMs) of concerned districts in Jammu and Kashmir are the legal custodians of the immovable properties of Migrants, who take suo motto action on eviction proceedings in cases of encroachment. The migrants can also request DMs in such cases. He said that the government has taken steps to restore the ancestral property of displaced persons who had to run away from Kashmir in the wake of terrorist violence there.
The minister further informed that after implementation of the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019 from all central laws are applicable to the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir with effect from 31st October 2019.
After 5th August 2019, all provisions of the Constitution of India have been made applicable to the Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) which necessitated changes in existing laws in J&K by Adaptation Orders so as to conform with the provisions of the Constitution of India. As per the adapted Land Revenue Act of Jammu and Kashmir, the Government of Jammu and Kashmir may, by notification in the official gazette, allow transfer of land for public purposes such as healthcare and education. |
