Kashmiri Flood Victims Yet To Be Rehabilitated

Hundreds of Kashmiri families who were devastated by floods in the Valley are yet to be rehabilitated. Many of them are stationing in Delhi as refugees in very deprived and inhuman conditions. A camp was set up in Shashtri Nagar which is known as national Kashmiri Relief Camp where nearly 350 families are living in tents since last many months. They are still not able to go back to their homes and are surviving on meagre help being occasionaly provided by Delhi government and some independent organisations. A CPI(ML) team comprising of Comrades Prabhat Kumar, Prem Singh Gahlawat and Aslam visited this camp on 22 January and met the inhabitants. They were told by many teenaged and young boys and girls that they want to continue their studies after going back to their homes. Majority of the inhabitants are from Kulgaon district. The Team members also met the members of the Camp Committee and handed them over a sum of Rs. 10000 as contribution and assured them of every possible assistance in future whenever required.
