JAMMU, Dec 1: The exposure in the RTI reply regarding killing of 118 innocents including several members of minorities, post August 5, 2019 till July this year, has falsified the claims of BJP and the Central Government about the situation in Kashmir valley, even after more than three and half years of the abrogation of special status and bringing down the state of J&K to UT, J&K Congress unit said here today.
Reacting to the RTI reply about large number of causalities especially minorities most of whom are victims of targeted killings, during the past over three years, Congress said it has exposed the tall claims of BJP and the Government about normalcy in situation in Kashmir.
Expressing grave concern over the series of targeted killings of minorities and large number of other innocents in the Kashmir valley during three years post August 5,2019 , JKPCC senior leader Ravinder Sharma said it has falsifies the hollow claims of BJP and the Government on the situation there.
Rather, the targeted killings of minorities including Kashmiri Pandits, other Hindus and Sikhs is a serious turn in the situation reverting towards the 1990, when Kashmir minorities were forced to leave the alley due to series of killings and threats to their lives.
This time the targeted killings of innocents especially KPs, other minorities and outside workforce and Jammu employees posted in Kashmir, is more dangerous trend indicating more serious situation reverting to 1990’s. The government must take more concrete measures to ensure the safety and security of all innocents especially minorities staying or working there, adding that more than 300 terrorists are still active in Kashmir and over 160 waiting to cross over, as per security forces, then how the situation is normal, he asked.
