| 14,000 Kashmiri Pandits willing to return home: AMCCC | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, July 27- Stating that 14,000 Kashmiri Pandits had given their consent to return to their native places in the valley, an organization of the displaced migrants today requested the Centre to come up with a proper rehabilitation plan.
"Altogether 14,000 Kashmiri Pandits have filled up the forms giving consent to return to their native places in the valley," national president of All Migrant Camps Co-ordination Committee (AMCCC) Desh Rattan Pandita told reporters here today.
"Home Minister P Chidambaram should come with a proper plan to the satisfaction of the members of the displaced community," he said.
The return package should include government jobs for educated youth of the community, general secretary of the committee R L Raina said.
The AMCCC leaders pointed out that hundreds of youth from poor families in the camps had to leave their education because of poverty.
"It appears that some people in the state government for their vested interests want to grab the package of Rs 1618 crores announced by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for return of Kashmiri Pandit migrants," Chairman of AMCCC Vir Ji Belove alleged.
They demanded that cash assistance be increased from Rs 4,000 to 10,000 per family for the migrants.
