KP employees hold protests for 5th day for 'evacuation'

Refusing to join work in Kashmir citing the ongoing unrest and alleged stone-pelting on their transit camps, Kashmiri Pandit employees today continued their protest demanding evacuation of members of their community from the Valley.
As the protest entered fifth day today, they alleged that the state government has failed to reach out to over 500 KP employees serving in the Valley, who escaped from Haal transit accommodation in Pulwama, Bramulla, Kupwara transit camps, Vessu and Mattan KP employees colonies inAnantnag district and managed to reach Jammu.
Angry employees, including women and their children, continued their sit-in protest in the compound of Relief Commissioner's Office (RCO).

Leaders of Kashmiri Pandits- All State Kashmiri Pandit Conference (ASKPC), Zeishta Devi Prabandik Committee (ZDPC), All India Kashmiri Samaj (AIKS), All Party Migrant Coordinations Committee (APMCC) have extended full support to displaced KP employees posted in the Valley under Prime Minister's Special employment package in Kashmir.
The protesters said the "stone pelting attack" has created fear among migrant employees living in areas like Haal, Pulwama, Vessu and Mattan in Anantnag and other places in north and central Kashmir.
