| MIGRATION DEBATE ON: A TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE WRITTEN BY ASHOK RAINA | | | | The term migration has often been used worldwide to refer to birds that migrate from one region to another, which we call seasonal birds. Before discussing this topic, it is important to understand the meaning of the term migration applied to Kashmiri Pandits after their unfortunate exodus from the Kashmir Valley in 1990.
We must fully understand that the migratory population cannot compete with the current population strength of Kashmiri Pandits, who are headed for extinction due to the mental harassment, illegal persecution, and indifference of all governments to date.
The National Human Rights Commission of India never intervened in the Kashmiri Pandit case nor did it visit the migrant camps from the beginning to check the health of the community after their exodus from their original home. The youth of this vast community were left to fend for themselves, as job opportunities eventually crossed all age limits.
Although the Indian government was well aware that the displaced community had the opportunity to live under the open sky and in camps with torn roofs, they had no other source of income or occupation to strengthen their ability to breathe. It is shocking and disheartening to note that the displaced community has been terribly and devastatingly decimated without any justification or reason.
In the current inflationary crisis, how can educated unemployed youth, who have been deliberately deprived of their fundamental rights, rendered jobless, and their lives physically disabled, survive? At the same time, those responsible and accountable for the history of the exiled Kashmiri Pandits for over 35 years, remain mere spectators to the conditions created for the minority community in the state of Jammu and Kashmir.
I, too, am a displaced person and a displaced citizen, witnessing all that has happened to the minority community in the state. The Indian government has never seriously addressed the issues of Kashmiri Pandits, and the possibility cannot be ruled out that a large number of young people from the community have died or remained unemployed due to lack of basic rights and necessities. More and more young people are becoming a source of negative influence due to the lack of attention from governments, and some are becoming mentally unstable in their efforts to manage the current situation.
The state of Jammu and Kashmir is divided into three regions and divisions, and governments everywhere are taking steps to manage the crises within the people and address them through others, but everyone's vision and understanding of Kashmiri Pandits differs. Budget proposals and recommendations are discussed in the House of Commons during each budget session for the three regions and divisions of the state, but no budget has been received for the exiled community, in accordance with the current inflationary norms and values, to reach the needy people. The story "Tota Bole Ganga Ram" is depicted and depicted at a rate of only 9 kg of rice per month per person.
You know that the central government has numerous schemes and major programs for the people of the country, but none of them hold any significance for the survival of Kashmiri Pandits within the boundaries of their territory.
The term "migration" is used for Kashmiri migrants instead of "displacement," and NAFSA forms are being submitted without any hindrance.
During the more than 35 years of exile, the Indian government never issued a white paper addressing their concerns. Despite the Kashmir Files, the latest picture presented to the public by the Films Division revealed that the Indian government has generated substantial profits by imposing GST conditions on the film, which is being used for other projects rather than for the deserving community.
It has also been learned that all successive governments, even the double-engine government and the Jammu and Kashmir government, have failed to alleviate the suffering of Kashmiri Pandits. Instead of calls for increased relief, the current situation is challenging and surprising.
In the secular, sovereign Republic of India, all successive governments have written discriminatory chapters without any authority or reason.
Uprooted and displaced writers, authors, litterateurs, and journalists have been harassed, mentally tortured, and deprived of their freedom of expression, even though it is guaranteed to them under Article 19(1)(a) of the Indian Constitution.
It is shocking and disappointing to say that a new chapter has been written in the profession of journalism. The principles of yellow journalism are being widely promoted and adopted at every step. Many good writers and journalists from minority communities have been forced to close their publications under various pretexts, while those with less qualifications and lacking professional knowledge are being promoted for political vested interests.
The letter from the Confidential Branch of the Staff Selection Commission, New Delhi, is sufficiently compassionate and noteworthy for every Indian citizen to point out that a large number of candidates from the state of Jammu and Kashmir have been absorbed on a priority basis without their participation in the recruitment process or selection process, while all-India candidates like me, once declared qualified, are being denied job opportunities in a secular nation.
Precious time has been lost, energy wasted, the breathing capacity of life has been severely reduced, financial resources have been depleted, and the vision of self-employment has eluded qualified and needy youth from minority communities.
It is a miracle for you to even understand what is happening within India, especially to the displaced community, including the author of this article.
The author and the author conclude with the astonishing fact that education is of no importance in shaping a person's existence today, but rather the chapter on constitutional rights is being deliberately kept out of reach by the responsible powers of the land for known and unknown reasons.
In the 21st century, serving in a competitive world, there is a need to completely crush the narrow-minded, as promoting ignorance is a very harmful act for a sovereign state.
The humanity of science and its perspectives need to be made more accessible to people around the world, and I hope that the National Human Rights Commission of India will do justice to deserving and needy individuals like the author of this article.
