Resettlement of KP’s in Kashmir most important political issue: PKM

Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 02- Ashwani Kumar Chrungoo, President, Panun Kashmir Movement (PKM) on Friday said that the issue of return and resettlement of the Kashmiri Pandit community in Kashmir are the most important political issues for the community and the nation. But any linkage of this political issue with the issues of livelihood is tantamount to exploiting the miseries of the people living in exile.
Ashwani Kumar while addressing a press conference in Jammu today said that there can be no relationship between the resettlement of the community in Kashmir with the employment of its youth. Such a linkage is not only a direct human rights violation of the people living in exile but a stark attack on the dignity of the community as a whole. The Kashmiri Pandit community has already rejected the return packages announced earlier by the successive governments, he added.
He said Kashmiri Pandits have already made known to the world their desire to resettle in Kashmir once Homeland with free flow of Indian constitution for them is established on the north and east of river Jehlum in Kashmir. Expressing deep concern over the recent developments that took place for the last two months within and outside the state of Jammu and Kashmir, he said while the government of India is persistently asking Pakistan to hand over the agents and forces responsible for terrorism in Mumbai so that they are brought to justice, it is strange that the State of India has failed to bring to justice the perpetrators of terrorism and genocide of the minorities in Kashmir, he added.
According to him, the Kashmiri Pandit community has been cautioning the nation about terrorism in Kashmir and its fall-out on the nation over the last two decades. Kashmir continues to be the gateway of terrorism in India and the terror attacks in the rest of India should not be seen or tackled in isolation. The contours of terrorism and its fundamentalist ideology can be ignored only at the peril of the national interests and the security of the people of the Indian nation, Ashwani told reporters.
M.L.Raina, Chairman, Political Affairs Committee and Upinder Kaul, General Secretary of PKM was also present in press conference.
