NEW DELHI: Kashmiri Pandits (KPs) are the most important stakeholders for any discussion on the issue of Jammu and Kashmir, Union minister Jitendra Singh today asserted as he asked the community to “fight for itself”.
“When you talk of having some kind of parleys or dialogue in Kashmir, Kashmiri Pandits are most essential stakeholders. This is something which nobody is saying. You have to say this aloud.
“Kashmir is not Kashmir without a Kashmiri Pandit and the composite culture of Kashmir which is so often talked about is not composite without the inclusion of Kashmiri Pandits. You had a population of eight lakh which was dislodged,” he said while releasing a book ‘The Last Queen of Kashmir’, written by Rakesh K Kaul.
The minister claimed the country was facing a threat from “intellectual terrorists” who have mushroomed across the length and breadth of the country. (AGENCIES)
