Modi Govt still undecided over rehabilitation of KPs 2/26/2015 11:46:57 PM Early Times Report JAMMU, Feb 26: Notwithstanding claims of Union Government of holding dialogue with Kashmiri Pandits on their rehabilitation in Valley, no headway has been made in redressing the problems of the displaced Pandits during last nine months of NDA Government led by Narendra Modi. According to sources the present Union Government failed to take any concrete steps in settling the long standing problems of displaced Pandits putting up in refugee camps at Jammu and other parts of the country. Sources said that the implementation of much talked about the PM's employment package of 6000 jobs announced in 2007 by then Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh is going on at snail's pace as out of 6000 jobs, recruitment process was started only for 3000 jobs in the first phase and till date only 1500 displaced youth have been given jobs in last eight years. Sources said this has fully exposed the Government and its lukewarm response to the issues of displaced Pandits shows that like previous governments, Modi Govt. is also not concerned over the issue of these hapless people who have been forced to flee from the Valley. During the last nine months neither any headway has been made in rehabilitation of the displaced Pandits in Valley nor any concrete steps were taken to implement the employment package by issuing the directives to State government in this regard. Even the announcement of the Union Home Minster regarding the enhancement of relief for the displaced people was an eye wash as Union government failed to issue formal orders in this regard. The callousness of the Government towards the community which has been forced to become refugees in their own country has been a cause of concern among the community. The majority of the community members are of the opinion that this is the reason that Modi government also toes the line of PDP and NC leadership in taking any decision on KPs rehabilitation or settlement.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
