JAMMU, Dec 27: Shree Mata Kulwagishori Prabandhak Trust Kulgam, (KBTK), Kashmir in a meeting here, today under the leadership of its president A N Bhat discussed the situation of shrines, temples and cremation ground of the area.
The meeting said that the cremation ground Kulgam has 38 kanals of land in record and it was also in the possession of the community. But some land grabbers and mafia having patronage of administration have grabbed its land after the mass exodus of the community.
They said that a big portion of land belonging to cremation ground in the town has been grabbed and out of 38 kanals of land belonging to the cremation ground only five kanals are visible on site at present which is a cause of concern for all.
