“I have been getting various SOS calls of the stranded Kashmiri and scores of evacuees from Iran and other countries presently putting up in various quarantine centres. The quarantine period and the required SOP’s issued by the Ministry of Home for the return of all evacuees from Iran and others quarantined at Mumbai, Jodhpur have already been carried out properly by the local authorities in those cities. Therefore the Government must take immediate steps to bring all those all satisfying the required SOPs to Srinagar,” he said.
While referring to the plight of Kashmiri students in Bangladesh, Krygistan said that the Government should take immediate steps to repatriate all those without any further delay.
“These people are running out of money; the lockdown has added to their miseries. They are going through turbulent times in wake of the country wide lockdown and scarcity of essentials. Their predicament has aggravated with no means of transport around, hence Government is duty bound to come to their rescue and ensuing their safe return to Kashmir,” he said.
