Islamabad, April 08, 2022 (PPI-OT):India is planning to change the Muslim majority status of illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir into a minority under the garb of rehabilitation of Pandits. India is constructing separate colonies to settle non-locals in the Kashmir Valley in the guise of Pandits’ rehabilitation, said a report released, today, by Kashmir Media Service.

It said Kashmiri Pandits have the right to return to their places in Kashmir but not reside in the selected townships under the protection of occupational troops. It pointed out that many Pandit families were happily living in the Kashmir valley with their Muslims neighbours, adding that the Modi-led fascist Indian government was trying to create social discord in IIOJK by settling Pandits in separate colonies.

The report lamented that the Modi regime is planning to accommodate Hindu extremists along with Pandits in the Kashmir Valley. The RSS-backed Modi government is issuing orders to monitor the execution of settling Hindus in the occupied territory.

It deplored that the Indian government had announced plans to set up soldier colonies to permanently settle Indian troops in the occupied territory. The report said that India was bound under international law not to change the demography of IIOJK but it was an established violator of global laws. It urged the world community to forestall New Delhi’s move of changing demography of the territory.
