JAMMU & KASHMIR— Amid insurgency in the territory of Jammu and Kashmir, a Sikh society named ‘Guru Manyo Granth Society’ asked the State and Union government to take the appropriate steps to ensure the security of minorities living in the valley.
Asking for special employment and a financial package for the minorities falling victim, President Rinku Singh said that the minorities were enduring loss in every condition. He said that if they don’t join the Kashmiris while protesting against the Indian paramilitary forces then they target them. But if they join the protests, the Paramilitary forces target them.
“We want the state and the central governments to take adequate security measures for various minorities living here.  We are all easy targets,” Rinku Singh told Sikh24.
“If we stand with protesters, we are targetted by the police, and if we stand against the mob, they target us,” Rinku Singh told Sikh24.
“Our businesses have been worst affected by the ongoing turmoil.  The economy has greatly affected us,” he said.  “We want a comprehensive reform for the minorities.”
