Improving situation will pave way for return of Kashmiri Pandits: LoP

Srinagar, Jun 3: Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma on Tuesday said that a restoration of stable environment and normalcy in Jammu and Kashmir will pave the way for the return of Kashmiri Pandits to the Valley.

Sunil Sharma said Jammu and Kashmir has been a victim of separatism, terrorism, stone-pelting, adding that there has been a major improvement in situation. “ We have seen a big change. In today’s Kashmir, we don’t have any separatist-sponsored shutdowns,” he added. A major shift towards peace will pave the way for the return of Kashmiri Pandits, he said.

He also said that over the period of time efforts have been made especially under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to facilitate the dignified resettlement of the Kashmiri Pandit community in the valley. “I believe that very soon, we will witness the return of the Kashmiri Pandit community in their homeland,” Sharma added.
