JK Guv's direction for filling up of 3000 posts for KPs

Jammu and Kashmir Governor N N Vohra today directed the Chief Secretary to urgently finalise the filling up of 3000 additional posts in various government departments for rehabilitation of Kashmiri migrants under Prime Minister's special package for the state.
The direction came in view of the orders of the high court in the matter, an official spokesman said.
Vohra held an extensive meeting at the Civil Secretariat to review the status of every significant issue relating to the provision of relief and rehabilitation of Kashmiri migrants.
The governor was informed that 3000 posts had been created in various government departments in 2011 for providing employment to Kashmiri migrant youths who were interested in serving in the Valley.

Meanwhile, the Youth All India Kashmiri Samaj (YAIKS) today accused the Centre of failing to protect the fundamental rights of Kashmiri Pandits and alleged that the leadership lacked political will to permanently rehabilitate the community.

"It seems there is no political will power to ensure the permanent resettlement and comprehensive rehabilitation of the Kashmiri Pandit community which has been living in exile for the past 26 years," YAIKS president R K Bhat told reporters in Jammu.
He said the central government has failed to protect the fundamental rights of the Kashmiri Pandit community and has not been able to come up with a package that would provide comprehensive and long term rehabilitation to the displaced community.

Demanding establishment of a Smart City where the community could be rehabilitated, Bhat said the Centre should provide a one-time compensation of Rs 25 lakh to the displaced families.
