In this regard a protest was organised in which a large number of Kashmiri Pandits participated.
Speaking on the occasion, President, JTC, Shadi Lal Pandita said that the land of Kashmiri Pandits which has been lying in Kashmir valley for the last 33 years on which some people in Kashmir valley have made illegal encroachments, the Government should remove all those illegal encroachments and return that land to Kashmiri Pandits.
Pandita said that for the past 33 years Kashmiri Pandits have been forced to live a life of exile by staying outside Kashmir due to which our identity is now disappearing and the Government is fully responsible.
Pandita said that Kashmiri Migrants are facing a lot of difficulties and the Government should think about our problems and solve them.
