I also request your goodself to refer this matter to the Ministry of Home Affairs with your favourable note to this effect. In addition, we seek a meeting with the Hon’ble Union Minister for Home Affairs through your august office in this regard”, the BJP leader saidHe further added, “Since the issue has a direct link with the ultimate goal of the resettlement of Kashmiri Pandits in Kashmir, the reservation or nomination in the J&K Assembly assumes great importance. This is the only opportunity available to realise justice for that segment of the society that has been forced to live as refugees in its own country and which continues to remain politically unrepresented due to the earlier policies of the governments”.
