JAMMU, Mar 22: Independent MLA from Langate, Engineer Abdul Rashid and BJP Legislator from Nowshera, Ravinder Raina today entered into verbal duel over settlement of migrant Kashmiri Pandits in Kashmir valley.
During the Zero Hour in Legislative Assembly, Engineer Rashid opposed the proposal vis-à-vis settlement of Kashmiri Pandits in a township in Kashmir valley and said, “we will never allow this to happen”. He, however, said that majority community would not have any problem if they (Kashmiri Pandits) are allowed to settle at their original places in the Kashmir valley.
This was objected to by BJP MLA, Ravinder Raina, who remarked, “Kashmir valley is integral part of the country and Kashmiri Pandits have right to stay anywhere in the Valley”, adding “they don’t require your permission as Kashmir valley is nobody’s personal estate”.
The verbal duel between both the legislators came to an end only after Speaker, Kavinder Gupta intervened.
