| KPs pin hopes on PM Modi | | |
In the recent past the process to resolve the grievances related to the properties of Kashmiri Pandit migrants, who were forced to leave Kashmir in 1990, has been expedited.
Many immovable properties that were sold by the Kashmiri Pandits after their forced exodus were distress sales.
They didn’t get the exact value which they should have got. For the past 32-years Kashmiri Pandit migrants have knocked all the doors, but the erstwhile Kashmir centric dispensations never paid much attention towards their pleas. For them things started moving only after a change of guard at the Centre in 2014, when Narendra Modi took over as the Prime Minister of India.
When Kashmir centric leaders ruled Jammu and Kashmir they couldn’t do much for the unfortunate community of Kashmiri Pandits as these leaders always remained under pressure from the separatists and the elements, who didn’t want KPs to return to their homeland.
Addressing grievances about their properties is fine but the government has to do more to facilitate their return to Kashmir.
It’s an established fact that a maximum of KPs have sold their immovable properties in the Valley and if they return the government has to provide them with accommodation and security.
Asking them to settle in their old homes is not a practical idea as they have been left with no homes.
The government will have to create conducive conditions for the dignified return of the Kashmiri Pandits to the Valley. Most KPs for the past 32 years are waiting for the right environment to prevail so that they can return with honour, dignity and a full sense of security. Necessary and adequate infrastructural facilities have to be created for the displaced KPs for them to resettle in the land of their ancestors.
The leaders of mainstream political parties in Kashmir have to shun negative politics and play a pivotal role to restore the lost glory of Kashmir where syncretism always used to be a bedrock of its societal and cultural life.
During the past three decades the KPs have been fed with slogans only, but in Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister, Amit Shah, they see a ray of hope as PM Modi is keen on seeking resettlement of the KPs in the Valley, while the Union Home Minister is trying his best to ensure that tasks undertaken to rehabilitate Kashmiri Pandits should be completed well in time. |
