"We hail the Centre's decision to raise the relief given to Jammu migrants at par with Kashmiri Pandit migrants," Member of Legislative Council (MLC) and senior PDP leader Vikramaditya Singh said today.
Vikramaditya, grand son of Maharaja Hari Singh and son of Congress Leader Dr Karan Singh, said it was important to understand that during militancy, several families living in higher reaches of Jammu hills were also badly affected and had to leave their homes and belongings.
Vikramaditya said the Talwara migrant's issue in district Reasi and other such issues were raised by him on several occasions and forums.
He hailed Mufti Mohammed Sayeed-led coalition government in J&K for having manage a substantial relief package for migrants who have been living in appalling conditions for years.
Vikramaditya also hailed the decision of the J-K government that has finalised the sites for setting up of two AIIMS in J&K.
He said this was in keeping with the aspirations of public in both regions and will go a long way in providing much awaited quality health care to them.
