Shamsher Hakla for ensuring functioning of mobile schools running in J&K | | | POONCH, Mar 13: Shamsher Hakla Poonchi, a prominent Gujjar leader has said that the Gujjars and Bakarwals of J&K are divided into three tribes settled, half settled and unsettled nomads. The needs and the problems, the language and culture of Gujjar Bakarwal tribe are quite different from other communities of J&K, that is why this tribe has its own peculiar position and it has its own identity, customs and a unique way of life. Gujjar Bakarwal tribes are educationally, economically, socially and politically backward, he said. Hakla said that the half settled and unsettled tribes of Gujjar Bakarwal people along with their belongings, families and cattle go to the heights of hills and mountains (Dhoks) as there they can have sufficient grazing fields for their cattle/animals. There they live for about six months of summer season; every year. He said that the many years ago the government of J&K had opened mobile schools for the children of Gujjar and Bakarwal tribes and those schools had to stay at these places where Gujjar and Bakarwal people resides during the six months of summer season so that these children could get proper education and during winter season, these mobile schools had to move down the plains where Gujjar and Bakarwal tribe resides during winter season. Hakla urged Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to frame a strong policy for ensuring the proper functioning of mobile schools in Jammu & Kashmir for half-settled and unsettled nomadic people of Gujjar and Bakarwal tribes. He also demanded for establishing a tribal university in J&K for Gujjar and Bakarwal students of J&K. |
