Settling of KPs in Valley will bring peace in Kashmir:BJP MLC

BJP MLC Surinder Ambardar today said that resettlement of displaced Kashmiri Pandits at one place in Kashmir will bring everlasting peace in the Valley.
Ambardar told the visiting all party delegation that for having lasting peace in Kashmir it was imperative that Kashmiri Pandits are settled in the Valley with the guarantee of non-refoulment and retention along with statutory political rights.
Ambardar, who led a Kashmiri Pandit group to meet the all-party delegation here, criticised that MPs from left parties, alleging that they kept on chasing separatists in Kashmir who were responsible for fomenting trouble and unrest in the Valley and do not believe in the Constitution of India.

"This step of delegation has not gone down well with the Kashmiri Pandit community as these were the people who were responsible for the exodus of Pandits although there aren't any expectations from the left parties as they acted as mute spectators during the early nineties when this the socio-religious community was forced to leave their homes and hearths," he alleged.
Ambardar said that the Pandits had full faith in Central government and the BJP had always stood for the rights of the community.
"We believe that our demands will be duly taken care of under the august leadership of prime minister and that they have no doubt whatsoever that Pandits narrative of being the equal stakeholders will be taken cognisance," he said.

"There is a need to build an alternative political narrative in Kashmir and Pandits after their resettlement with restitution of their political rights will come up as the alternate factor and will create a platform for lasting peace in the Kashmir Valley," he said.
He also said that there was a need to take into account the demands of the Kashmiri Pandit employees who were sitting on strike from last 50 days and had gone back to the Valley for jobs, but had to return for security because of the ongoing unrest.
