Srinagar, Jan 20 : Jammu and Kashmir’s Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha Friday said that all the security arrangements are in place for the Bharat Jodo Yatra and the administration will facilitate it smoothly. He reiterated that those who misused powers to grab state land will face action and that the poor and common masses need not afraid of the ongoing drive.

Talking to reporters at Zewan, Srinagar after inaugurating 930 Transit Accommodations for Migrant Kashmiri Pandits working under Prime Minister’s Reconstruction Plan (PMRP), LG Sinha as per news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) said that there was a time when land wasn’t available for the migrant KPs for construction of flats. “Today, we have inaugurated a 930 flat-type transit accommodation for the migrant KPs. Majority of migrant KP employees working under PMRP are from Srinagar,” he said. “Similar projects are going on in other parts of Kashmir as well. Security concerns and the measures for protection of KPs have been taken care of well.”
