Governor, Manoj Sinha to take a humanitarian view on the miserable plight of Kashmiri Pandits and their pertinent issues like their rehabilitation back in Valley with honour and dignity in a time bound period, enhancement of meager monthly relief assistance from Rupees 13000/ to 25000 per month, announcement of special permanent employment package for educated KP Youth to tackle their rising unemployment, doling out of left out compensation to the gutted and damaged properties of Kashmiri Pandits in Valley, and construction of adequate residential quarters for migrants living on rents in Jammu.
Pandita also appealed Home Minister and Lt. Governor J&K to reactivate the migrant grievance portal forthwith with implementation of immovable migrant property act 1997 in letter and spirit.
