He said that while the PoK refugees were languishing in pathetic conditions for the last over 60 years, the government was more concerned about the Kashmiri youth who had recently crossed over to PoK for receiving arms training with a clear motive of waging war against Indian Union.
Shamsher Singh Manhas demanded immediate resettlement and rehabilitation of refugees of all categories, including those from PoK,
Manhas said that on one hand the state government comes out with the excuses of financial crunch every now and then, it has enough money for such people who got lured and crossed over to Pak with ill intentions. He said government employees and pensioners are on roads, adhoc/contractual employees are agitating, more than 6 lakh youth are unemployed but the government don’t think about them.
He appealed for immediate relief of pending sixth pay commission arrears to serving as well as retired Govt. employees besides meeting their genuine demands so that wrong message does not go about the functioning of the state administration.
