| Appeal to KPs for safeguarding Hindu shrines | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Mar 9: Prem Nath Bhat Memorial Trust has appealed to Kashmiri Pandit Community in particular and all others in general to participate in large numbers in the peaceful token dharna being held by the community on Monday, March 12, outside press club Jammu,
PNBM Trust which has been assigned the responsibility by all the KP organizations as a nodal agency for spearheading the movement for introduction and passage of Kashmiri Hindus temples and other religious places protection and management bill in the state legislature, has with the consultation of all other organizations of the community, chalked out the program to hold mass dharna on Monday March 12, outside Jammu press club, to highlight their concern for the protection of their religious places in Kashmir. The religious places of Kashmiri Hindus in Kashmir are being vandalized, encroached upon and sold by some unscrupulous elements, after the forced mass exodus of the community from Kashmir 22 years back.
A meeting of the core group of the PNBM Trust held here today exuded confidence that the mass dharna to be held on the said date will be quite impressive with thousands of people joining the same.
The trust activists are holding corner meetings in the areas inhabited by the community and are also going home to home to implore the people to join the mass dharna to press their genuine demand and to focus the attention of the authorities towards the burning issue agitating the community.
The meeting appealed to the legislators of all the parties to support their demand and move the bill and get it passed in the current legislative session. It has also appealed to the government to bring and official bill in the budget session and also pass the same, since leaders of all the parties have assured the community of their support to the bill.
The KP community has been demanding for long for the constitution of statutory body to protect, maintain and manage their religious places in Kashmir, on the pattern of Auqaf Board for the Muslim religious property and Gurduwara Prabandak Board and Committees for the protection and management of Sikh Gurdawaras. The passage of the bill will be a biggest confidence building measure for the migrated KP community to return to the valley and settle their with a sense of security and dignity, it was observed in the meeting. |
