JAMMU, Mar 31: The Panthers Party has urged the President of India, Ramnath Kovind to direct the Government of India to provide equal opportunities and privileges to all the migrants, may they be from Ladakh, Kashmir province or Jammu.
“Migrants of Jammu, including Doda, Rajouri-Poonch or Reasi who were forced to migrate 20 years back or so deserve equal opportunities including ration, food supply, residential facilities whether they are migrants from Kashmir or Doda, Kishtwar, Rajouri-Poonch or elsewhere from any corner of Jammu province also,” said an appeal by JKNPP President Prof Bhim Singh to the President of India seeking urgent action to ensure justice to all migrants of J&K.
Panthers Party said that nearly 5000 migrants, generally known as Talwara Migrants have remained denied of justice for the last 20 years in spite of judicial orders and judgments of the Supreme Court of India for years. These Jammu migrants have not been provided any benefit even after Supreme Court judgement.
The Panthers Party has also directed the State Legal Aid Committee to take up the matter of Jammu migrants noted as Jammu Migrants in J&K under the LG Administration.
