| Govt has deliberately made vote process cumbersome for displaced Pandits' | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 7: With Government deleting the votes of Kashmiri Pandits from electoral rolls and asking them to cast their votes in their respective areas in Kashmir Valley, the Pandits putting up in different colonies of Jammu apprehend that their respective colonies in Jammu will be neglected so far as development is concerned.
According to sources Kashmiri Pandits are totally concerned over the Government decision of deleting their names in municipal voter lists in Jammu for which the community polled their votes in 2005 municipal elections.
The displaced Pandits who are putting up in various colonies in Jammu said what right they have in approaching the public representatives of JMC when they are not entitled to vote here.
They said this way their areas will remain neglected for years together.
Some KP organisations have decided to approach the authorities with the request that the KP candidates elected in Valley be authorised to spend some portion of their development funds for migrant colonies in Jammu.
Sources said that Government has unnecessarily put Kashmiri migrants to problems by introducing the postal ballot this time by not giving it proper publicity.
This way maximum migrants were caught unaware and they could not fill up their forms well in time, sources added
When the Kashmiri Pandits visited the ARO Office to produce the filled forms to get postal ballots were not entertained by ARO Migrants on the plea that the last date for receiving forms has expired.
The Pandits who had visited the ARO office for submitting forms were surprised to know that date has expired and said that it is totally surprising that Government has not given any publicity to the matter and being scattered all over the country how could they come to know about expiry of last date when matter was not given wider publicity by Government.
Criticising the behaviour of election authorities Pandits said this is a deliberately move to debar the migrants from casting their vote.
The Pandits plea to extend the date for receiving the forms was not accepted by Election authorities which shows their malicious intensions said Bansi Lal Raina a socio political activist. |
