In a joint statement president Kashmiri Hindu Conference (KHC),advocate M L Thusu its convener P L Koul Badgami and president All Migrant Camp Coordination Committee Desh Rattan have criticized the JDA for demolishing the quarters at Nagrota camp without prior information to the migrants or Relief Organization so that the people who had their house hold goods and material in these quarters could have taken the same out.
They said instead of allotting new quarters to these hapless people who are facing many hardships in exile for last 28 years, the authorities put then to further loss and their step tantamount to highhandedness.
