Mohammad Faheem Reshi, Chairman of Greater Shah-re-Khaas Leadership and Khalid Nayeem, Advocate Kashmiri Pandits visited  Jagti and Purkhoo camps on Sunday on humanitarian grounds

Jammu: Reshi said that the plight of Kashmiri Pandits in temporary settlements, such as Jagti and Purkhoo migrant camps in Jammu, is a longstanding humanitarian issue facing challenges such as inadequate housing, poor living conditions, lack of proper medical facilities, limited educational opportunities, and unemployment.

Nayeem added that the residents of camps like Jagti, Purkhoo, Muthi, and others live in cramped quarters with insufficient infrastructure, struggling to maintain their cultural identity and social stability.

They said that though over the years various governments have introduced rehabilitation and resettlement plans, the progress has been slow, leaving many Kashmiri Pandits disillusioned.

Reshi said that despite the efforts to address their concerns including the provision of jobs under special employment packages, scholarships for students, and promises of secure resettlement in the Valley, a comprehensive solution that ensures their dignified return and sustainable reintegration into Kashmiri society still remains elusive.

Adding further, Nayeem remarked that advocacy for their cause continues, and highlighting their struggles is essential to ensuring long-term justice and rehabilitation for this displaced community.
