Jammu, February 3 (KNO) : While reacting to the reports of thrashing of Kashmiri students by some goons in Haryana's Mahendragarh last evening, CPI (M) leader and MLA Kulgam Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami Saturday said a hate campaign has been unleashed on Kashmiris outside the state and it has patronage of communal forces in the country.
While raising the issue in the Assembly, he said such incidents have serious implications. The already prevailing uncertain situation in Kashmir gets compounded by such incidents. During the grants on CM’s departments yesterday this Assembly discussed security related issues. This (Haryana incident) is not an isolated incident against Kashmiris. In the past, similar incidents have happened in Rajasthan and other states. It is a hate campaign which has been unleashed on Kashmiris outside the state and it has patronage of ruling party in the country.
Cutting across the political divide this House should pass a resolution urging the Prime Minister to condemn such incidents on the floor of the Parliament. Subsequently he (PM) should assure safe and secure environment for Kashmiri students, businessmen, labourers and others working in various states of the country. And also assuring the people that such heinous crimes will be probed and those found involved are punished according to the law.(KNO)
