In a press conference here today Sham Lal Basson, president All J&K Dalit Chetna Manch and others said that Rs. 5 lakh ex-gratia given to the families of the deceased persons is not sufficient and it should be hiked at par with similar cases of J&K.

“We have full faith in Army and we hope that commitment made by representatives of Army in presence of District Administration will be fulfilled soon because bread earners of both families have been killed and there is none to feed them,” Basson further said.
