"In case the suffering of newly appointed migrant employees under PM's package will be continued, we will be forced to restart the agitation", Youth All India Kashmiri Samaj (YAIKS) President R K Bhat told reporters here today.

Bhat said that Government of India has sanctioned huge amount for the rehabilitation of Kashmiri Migrants employees but nothing concrete is visible on the ground.

It is unfortunate that the Kashmir Valley is having 100 per cent water usage in the world but still the employees residing in the Veesu Camp are facing water shortage, he said, adding for the last two years they are being provided water tank supply

He demanded the separate accommodation for the employees recruited under PM's special package announced in April 2008.

In case government will not act for redressal of the problems faced by the employees, it will be setback for further CBMs and how the government is claiming tall for honorable return of the community, Bhat added.
