JI in IOK opposes separate colonies for Pandits

ISLAMABAD, (APP): Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) has said that Kashmiri
Pandits have every right to settle in the territory but any separate colonies for them are not acceptable to the people.
The JI spokesman, Advocate Zahid Ali, in a statement in Srinagar said
that the establishment of separate colonies would damage the communal harmony and would adversely affect the interests of the majority Muslim population,KMS reported.
He said that the colonies could also be used as conspiratorial centers
against the Muslims.
The JI spokesman deplored that on one hand, the authorities assured the
people that no such proposal was at hand, and on the other, secretly large
plots for establishing such colonies had been identified at various places as per the reports published in local dailies.
He said, such reports have caused serious concerns among the public and
the deceptive tactics of the authorities have evoked strong condemnation from all quarters.
The JI cautioned the puppet administration against the anti-people
activities and asked it to desist from implementing these unacceptable plans,otherwise, it would have to face the public wrath for which it would be solely responsible.
