Jammu, May 16: Amid the ongoing protests of the Kashmiri Pandit community all around the UT of Jammu Kashmir in support of deceased Rahul Bhatt's family, Senior RSS leader Indresh Kumar has extended his support to the community questioning the 'silence' of political parties over the heinous act.
Reacting to the increasing incidents of targeted killings of Kashmiri Pandits in the valley, the community had flooded the roads in J&K in protests. The recent attack on Rahul Bhatt, a govt employee from the Kashmiri Pandit community, in his office in Chadoora area of Budgam, on Thursday (May 12) became a triggering point for the protests.
The senior RSS leader has appealed the locals of Kashmir Valley to stand together with the Kashmiri Pandits in their fight against terrorism. He has further questioned the silence of political parties about the recent related events and said that the anger of the community is completely justified.
Indresh Kumar said, "The bigger anger here is about the silence of the parties that chant the slogans of secularism like Rahul Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee, Arvind Kejriwal and Uddhav Thackeray. It seems as if the Kashmiri Pandits were not the citizens of this country and atrocities on them doesn't matter."
He further added, "The Centre should help the Kashmiri Pandits to return back to the valley. I appeal to the locals of the valley to stand together with the Pandits against terrorism. Till Kashmir does not become free from terror, the people in the country will not rest and continue to raise their their voice for the Pandits."
