Delhi govt committed to ensuring justice for Kashmiri Hindus: Sood

New Delhi, Jul 14 (PTI) Delhi Home Minister Ashish Sood on Monday reviewed the issues related to rehabilitation, security and welfare of the displaced Kashmiri Hindu community in the city.

Delhi government is committed to ensuring justice for the Kashmiri Hindu community, Sood said and added that the previous government in Delhi showed "apathy" to them.

Since 1990, certain relief measures for the Kashmiri Hindu community have been extended through the Ministry of Home Affairs in Delhi. However, these provisions were disrupted from June 30, 2024, he said.

"After the formation of our government, steps have already been taken to address some of these issues,” the minister said.

In a recent meeting with Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, the Kashmiri Hindu community shared their grievances. She assured them of appropriate solutions to their problems, he said.

He said the Delhi government stood firmly with displaced Kashmiri Hindus and empathised with their sufferings. PTI VIT HIG
