JAMMU, Aug 19: NC Migrants Cell has expressed concern over delaying tactics by Government in settling the demands of the displaced Pandits from Valley.
The Cell in its meeting here, today held under the chairmanship of its working president, M K Yogi said there is a brewing resentment among the community for delaying tactics adopted by Government on implementation of employment package for displaced Pandit youth.
It said though announced over six years back by Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh a job package of 6000 posts for displaced youth, only 1450 displaced youth have been provided employment under the package.
Highlighting the other demands it said that the migrant shopkeepers have not been allotted shops at Jagti as promised and their livelihood is stake. Besides, no attention has been paid to allot quarters to those migrants who are still living in rented accommodations.
Mr Yogi said despite the promises the community was not given even representation in the council of Ministers till date which is a grave cause of concern. He appealed the Chief Minster to fulfill the promises immediately.
