Chief Secretary assures strict action against erring officials involved
Let the ministers sent back their security and then only order migrants to join in valley after mere promotions, she said adding that government is mingling jobs with return policy which amounts to serious conspiracy. She said that issue of property of migrants and temples was also brought into the notice of CS. Sheila added that land mafia in nexus with revenue authorities has managed to change names of ownership of land, which should be probed and involved should be dealt with iron hand.
She said that she also brought into notice of CS, that on the one hand government is parroting return and rehabilitation of migrants and on the other is busy in constructing huge buildings for them. She said that mockery in the name of providing government jobs to unemployed educated youth and one time exgratia to over aged youth was also discussed in breath and length.
To a query, Sheila Handoo replied that it seems that government is hardly bothered of Kashmiri migrants and of their well being. She added that it seems that department is being run in the name of god and the authorities at the helm of affairs belong to a decayed lot. She said that if the menace continues to prevail the situation would turn ugly anytime in the days to come.
