Refugee leaders criticize BJP for package
1/30/2020 10:44:36 PM
Early Times Report

Jammu, Jan 30 : Several Senior Refugee leaders have lashed out at the BJP for betrayal with refugees of 1947, 1965 and 1971 as regards the full amount of package including Ex-gratia relief of Rs. 25 Lakh per family recommended by Congress-NC Govt. to the Centre in the year 2014.
Extending full support to the various sections and organizations of refugees agitating for the implementation of full relief package as per recommendations of state Govt. and the report of Joint Parliamentary Committee in 2014, the senior refugee leaders lambasted the BJP leaders for their betrayal and refusal to fulfill their repeated promises to the refugees to give more than 25 Lac per family besides other components of the relief package. BJP exploited the refugees for their vote bank politics and sought votes in Assembly and Lok Sabha elections but now refuse to acknowledge their own commitment.
The refugees and different organizations are justified in reminding the ruling BJP of its promises to them but BJP leaders are showing their indifference and arrogance, after getting huge mandate from them. Even the meager amount of 5.5. Lac per family announced by the Centre has not been disbursed to large number of eligible displaced families so far. It is unfortunate that on one hand BJP fails to fulfill their own promises, while they oppose any genuine protest to seek genuine rights by the refugees. The custodian department has caused lot of harassment to the families in the process of release of initial amount of 5.5. Lac only and still hundreds of cases are pending for payment despite clearance for the last several months. They questioned the delay of years in disbursement of meager amount due to large scale hurdles in the process, causing lot of avoidable harassments to them.
They asked BJP to get the entire amount of relief sanctioned for the Centre, as per recommendations of JPC, besides full implementation of the package including jobs reservations as per BJP’s commitments with them.
The Signatories to the statement include Shri Vinod Sharma, Pawan Raina, Amrit Bali, S. Gurmeet Singh Raina, S. Gajan Singh, Adv. Bhavishya Sudan,. N.C. Sharma, Sahil Sharma, K.L. Khajuria, |Roshan Lal Prassher, Dwarka Nath Sharma, Suraj Raina and others
