Kashmiri migrant pandits observe 35th exodus anniversary in Jammu
JAMMU, Jan 19 (PTI): Hundreds of Kashmiri migrant pandits gathered on Sunday at a sprawling ground near their Jagti settlement here to mark the 35 years of their exodus from the valley, demanding justice and a roadmap for their return and rehabilitation.
The Kashmiri Pandit community observes January 19 as the “holocaust day” to mark their migration from the Valley in 1990 following the eruption of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
Several migrant organizations like Panun Kashmir, Youth All India Kashmiri Samaj (YAIKS) and Kashmir Pandit Sabha (KPS) held separate events during the day to pay tributes to the victims and to reaffirm commitment to the cause of the Kashmiri Pandits.
