Evacuate Kashmiri Pandits from Valley: Panun Kashmir

Panun Kashmir today demanded evacuation of minority Kashmiri Pandits from the Kashmir Valley fearing danger to their lives.
"We urge the government of India to realise the dangers to the life and existence of Hindus living in Kashmir. We appeal to the government to evacuate Hindus living in Kashmir to safe places outside," Panun Kashmir convener Agnishakher told reporters here.
"Life, safety and honor of the minorities living in Kashmir is the responsibility of the government and it should show no dithering in fulfilling this responsibility," he said.
Batting strongly for 'homeland' for 7 lakh Kashmiri Pandits in the Valley, Panun Kashmir said that current situation in Kashmir justified its demand.

"After whatever has happened with the Hindus living in Kashmir in the aftermath of the killing of the dreaded terrorist Burhan Wani nobody should have any doubt that the creation of Union territory of Panun Kashmir north and east of River Jhelum is the only way for the safe and lasting rehabilitation of KPs," he said.
Panun Kashmir Chairman Ajay Chrungoo said "the attacks on minority Kashmiri Hindus have happened all across the Valley. The reports of the incidents of burning Hindu houses, desecrating temples are pouring out and a comprehensive picture of the situation will appear before us in coming days".

"It is more than clear that entire Kashmir is in the grip of a fundamentalist Islamist order," he claimed.
He said the terrorist Burhan owed allegiance to Hizbul Mujahideen which is motivated by the same regressive ideology as that of LeT, al Qaeda and ISIS.
"If the killing of such a dreaded terrorist invokes widespread public outrage it is only a measure of the extent to which Islamic fundamentalism has made inroads into the society," he stressed.
