| Will attack KP colonies in Valley: Hizb | | Hopes dashed again | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, June 7: Dashing the very last hope of the displaced Kashmiri Pandits to return home, militants have threatened that the colonies the government is mulling to construct for the KPs would be attacked.
"If Sainik colony or separate colonies on Israel pattern for Hindu's are created in Kashmir we will target them," Hizbul Mujahideen's 'commander' Burhan Wani says in his latest video.
The 6:17 minute video that has gone viral on social networking sites including whatsapp and facebook has Burhan warning the police of more attacks if action against the militants isn't stopped. The video shows Wani in a white T-shirt sitting on a chair with white colour background.
The new video has put the security grid in Jammu and Kashmir again on high alert as the government earlier had made it clear that it would go ahead with making of the clusters for the Kashmiri Pandits who had to leave their homeland at the onset of militancy.
The separatists and the national conference already have opposed to the idea of the return of the Kashmiri Pandits in colonies.
On May 27, Kashmir witnessed shutdown after the separatist leaders including Syed Ali Geelani, Yasin Malik and Mirwaiz issued a unanimous strike call against the making of the Pandit colonies in Kashmir.
Furthermore, speaking in the state Legislative Assembly, the chief minister Mehbooba Mufti said, "We will bring back Kashmiri Pandits with respect, we will live together here."
She also stated that colonies to be built for retired military personnel or ex-servicemen will only be for state subjects and not for retirees from outside the state.
"Sainik colonies are not for outsiders but for state subjects only, this proposal has been in the process from the last government's tenure," the chief minister informed the Assembly.
"In our government tenure, the Governor ordered to identify land for Sainik colonies but so far no land has been identified," she added.
Kashmiri Pandits have already appealed to the central Government headed to decisively intervene into the matter of their return and rehabilitation in separate townships in Kashmir in order to restore the confidence of the Kashmiri Pandits who had welcomed the important steps taken regarding return by them till now.
KPS leaders also criticised the Hurriyat Conference, JKLF and all the other main stream political parties who have been objecting to the establishment of concentrated settlements for the Pandits. |
