Ch Manmohan demands extension of rehabilitation package scheme for Displaced Persons | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Feb 8: The abrupt closure of rehabilitation package scheme for PoJK Displaced Persons of 1947 and Chhamb DPs of 1965 and 1971 is a cruel joke with those refugees who have not received the stipulated Rs 5.5 lakh relief for delay in documentation. This was stated by All India Jat Maha Sabha President and former Mayor Jammu, Ch Manmohan Singh in response to government move to annul the aforesaid scheme from February 10, 2022 onwards. He questioned the logic of denying the genuine right to the refugees who have migrated from PoJK during the aforesaid years leaving behind their homes and hearth. Ch Manmohan Singh alleged that dictatorial attitude of bureaucracy and highhandedness of the Revenue Department have led to this situation resulting in sheer injustice to thousands of people and marring the goodwill shown by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi towards the people who were forced to leave their everything in PoJK for no fault of theirs. He said that many refugee families have been denied their rightful share of Rs 5.5 lakh by rejecting their applications without even telling the beneficiaries about the shortfalls in their documentation. The former Mayor questioned the entire procedure adopted by the concerned department while inviting the applications because the applicants were never given any receipts for their applications thus giving rise to ambiguity and even corruption. Expressing concern, he said that it is totally unjustified to close the scheme as most of the beneficiaries are still struggling to get their due as procuring documents from the revenue department is the most difficult part in this whole gamut. Ch Manmohan Singh also raised concern over the concerned department not telling the aforesaid applicants the reason for denying them the relief as the same has also led to confusion and delay in many cases. He said that there is no logic in abruptly closing the aforesaid scheme because still hundreds of families are lurching to get the benefit guaranteed by none other than the Prime Minister of the country. |
