Sinha said that PAJK was an integral part of India and no power can keep it away from the Union.

Talking to reporters on the sidelines of an event titled special governance for PAJK people, in Jammu, the LG, said that the divisional administration Jammu has identified land where PAJK Bhawan will come up for the displaced PAJK refugees.

“These people have suffered a lot and their children are the worst sufferers. We will soon have a PAJK Bhawan and the colonies where these people are living at present will be regularized shortly,” he said, adding that the children of displaced PAJK refugees will be given priority in jobs and education.

He said that the government is committed to resolve all issues being faced by the PAJK refugees. “PAJK will come up as per the aspirations of refugees,” the LG said, adding that the divisional administration and the revenue officials will hold deliberations with the displaced PAJK people before setting the ball rolling for the PAJK bhawan.

He said that PAJK is an integral part of India and no power on earth can keep it away from the Union for long. “I urge all the PAJK people including women and youth to play their part in building a strong India and vibrant India,” he said.

Sinha said that the way a huge list of KP youth have been received the administration for entrepreneurship, similarly, PAJK should follow the suit.

“Register your youth in the camps and administration will provide all support for your youth to become entrepreneurs who can provide employment to five other youth,” he said, adding that these camps will be organized in every district.

“These people are living a dignified life now,” he said.

He said that the administration has directed all the banks to provide all support to youth who are coming forward to start their own ventures. (KNO)
