NEW DELHI: A Parliamentary standing committee has expressed its displeasure over the non-implementation of the rehabilitation project for the displaced Kashmiri Pandits leading to decrease in allocation of funds and strongly recommended early approval of jobs and accommodation for them.
“The Committee strongly recommends that the Ministry of Home Affairs should take up the matter with the Cabinet for early approval for jobs to be given and transit accommodation to be constructed to Kashmiri migrants,” the department-related Parliamentary standing committee on Home Affairs said in its 192 report.
The Committee is displeased to note that non-finalisation of projects or other procedural wrangles under rehabilitation of Kashmiri migrants scheme led to under expenditure and decrease in allocation during last fiscal.
The panel recommended that the Home Ministry should pursue with cabinet secretariat for early approval of proposed rehabilitation plan. The Committee hopes that the Home Ministry would utilise allocated funds during this fiscal in time. (AGENCIES)
