A short thread that will convince our fellow citizens that kashmiri hindus won't break as nationalists .. we faced genocide from Pakistani terrorists .. corrupt govt officials .. hostile population .. communal teachers.. smart politicians.. selfish friends .. a small thread..
On migrating to Jammu ... we lived in tents 100 Pound .. minimum five members .. even animals do live in peace but we could not ..due to snakes ..hot weather and hostile people ..
A few of us got into rented accommodations..houses which were converted by local jammuites from stables and cow sheds .. a heavy rent was paid well in time if it meant selling jewelery of mother or wife ..
While a few of us remained in #Kashmir were hounded for several years by #Pakistani terror organisations and killed mercilessly on the streets as worst as chicken are culled during fateful times ..
We were given relief through relief commissioner Jammu .. an amount that is not even good for buying two decent meals .. corrupt officials soon made ways in embezzeling half of that amount as administrative fee ..
The employees were never investigated of huge properties that they made in Jammu with a meager clerk salary .. they had luxury cars and huge bank balances with arrogant attitude towards us but we kept on respecting them for being our Gods feeding us ..
Schools were established for us in camps utilizing the same tents .. it had no infrastructure .. no regular teachers .. graduation took 6 years to complete due to Kashmir university failing to get our papers checked on time .. we still did our best to pass ..
Tall promises were made for providing us with jobs ..nothing was done on ground..so many of us were on our own ..finding jobs in private companies ready to to peon after graduating with first division ..
The govts talked more and did less .. the land sharks fell heavily on us selling lands which were worth thousands in lakhs to us.. we were helpless ..we sold properties in kashmir for pennies and bought houses in jammu with dollars price .. no govt never intervened
Instead #OmarAbdullah and #Mufti govts encouraged distressed sales by enhancing the patwari strength and training them in bargaining the lowest price with us and the virtual buyers which were made to negotiate at behest of agencies
Later the houses were raised from ground .. the murtis in our temples buried to destroy our identity.. meanwhile Jammu was opening up as a big business centre courtesy kashmiri migrants ..
I will continue this thread shortly ..
