| PM package employees feel insecure after Jaish letter | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 6: With militant outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad giving a threatening to Kashmiri Pandit migrant employees putting up at Sheikhpora transit camp to leave the Valley within seven days the panic has gripped the Kashmiri Pandit employees appointed in Valley under Prime Minister's employment package for displaced youth. The threatening letter was sent to one of the inmates of transit camp on August 1 warning them to leave the Valley within week as they have spoiled the atmosphere in Kashmir and were trying to be a stumbling block to Islamization in Valley. Though the Government did not react to the letter and threat call, the panic has gripped all migrant employees serving in Valley under PM's special employment package and putting up in Government transit accommodations at Vessu and Mattan in Anantnag district, Khanpora in Baramulla district besides Shiekhpora in Budgam. The migrant employees especially the females who were already concerned about their safety and security are more perturbed since the Jaish-e-Mohammad's (a dreaded militant outfit) letter.
The migrant employees are so panicky after the news about JM's letter spread that they feel threatened on bursting of a tire tube at highway or firing of a cracker. The threat has created many more apprehensions among these hapless employees who were appointed in Kashmir Valley by the Government on the assurance of intercommunity goodwill but failed to restore confidence among them. "We have no proper security arrangements around the camp and JKP guard manning the camps is not vigilant" said a displaced youth appointed under PM's package. He said the employees demand to provide CRPF guard has not been conceded till date and reiterated that Government should provide the CRPF guard to transit camps immediately. The Pandit employees so panicked after receiving the militants threat letter that some of their representatives approached separatist leaders Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Yasin Malik and Moulvi Umar Farooq.
Though separatist leaders showed their concern over the letter and assured their sympathies to displaced people. Even some of them termed it handiwork of Government of India which is not a fact. It may be recalled that Geelani had earlier warned against the construction of transit accommodation in Valley for settlement of displaced Pandits and alleged that Government was trying to change the demography of Valley by settling outsiders under a game plan of RSS. The migrant youth are also wary against their leadership and Government saying no KP leader bothered to visit the camps to ascertain their problems during last two years after their appointment. Even the Government also ignored us and no officer visited the camps during the period to look into security arrangements, they added.
Maintaining that letter is a threat to appointment of remaining 1500 migrant youth under PM's package. The employees are of opinion that separatists want to create fear psychosis among displaced youth so that they will not fill up the forms and show willingness to work in Valley. Even some elements in Government too support them and this is the reason that PM's employment package has been delayed by State Government. |
