The team took extensive visit of the camp and enquired the problems of the inmates of Migrant Camp. The team included \Rohit Pandit, Sunil Kaw, Sunil Pandita and R.K. Koul.
The team had an extensive interaction with the inmates of Jagti Camp.
Speaking on the occasion Vir Saraf said that Government is callous in executing the Prime Minister’s Employment package with sincerity.
Saraf demanded that the remaining 4300 posts be filled up immediately. He also demanded that the over-aged youth be given Rs. 25 lac as one time settlement so that they can set up their own business.
While addressing the gathering Saraf said that over aged youth are the worst sufferers of the displacement of Kashmiri Pandits from Kashmir 22 years back.
He said that un-employed over aged youth are a forgotten lot and the government needs to address their problems without further delay.
Saraf accused the government of violating the fundamental rights of the displaced people by not restoring the basic facilities like water, electricity, medi-care to the camp inmates. Even the dispensary does not have proper man power to run the equipments for the camp inmates.
This is gross violation of Human Rights by the Government.
Saraf declared that they will file a case against authorities in State Human Rights Commission if the basic facilities are not restored forthwith.
