Budgam (J and K), May 20(ANI): The Omar Abdullah Government in Jammu and Kashmir, in its bid to solve the problem of accommodation of displaced Kashmiri Pandits, has constructed over 200 flats in Sheikhpora village of Budgam district.
The move to offer relief and rehabilitation to migrant Pandits has been appreciated by locals.
"I think that it is a very good initiative. The construction of the flats is very good. I think more flats should be constructed so that all those migrants who want to come back can be provided with accommodation," said Sandeep Kumar, non-migrant Pandit.
Migrant Pandits have urged the state government to launch more such schemes to facilitate their rehabilitation.
"We want the process to continue and through this initiative more than 200 families have come here. The environment here is peaceful and we want that the government should take more initiatives in this regard so that more families can be given accommodation," R.K Bakshi, a migrant Pandit, said.
Buidgam Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Akbar Ganie said the efforts to provide accommodation to the displaced Pandits are in full swing.
"The government has a policy to rehabilitate all the migrants. We have constructed these flats not only in Budgam, but also in Anantnag and Kupwara," Ganie informed. (ANI)
