Jammu, September 22:
Domicile certificates are proving boon for the youth, they have opened roads of access to the government facilities for every common resident of Jammu & Kashmir, who was earlier neglected and treated as 2nd class citizen of the J&K, stated Bharatiya Janata Party All Morcha Incharge and senior leader Munish Sharma.
Munish Sharma was handed over the Domicile Certificates to all the members of a family at their home on the occasion. Pertinent to note that Munish Sharma along with other BJP leaders and activists has been ensuring essential services throughout to help the needy population of the area.
Munish Sharma on the occasion said that they are trying their best to ensure that the Maximum people are provided domicile Certificates at their doorsteps. We also request the administration for helping out the needy persons by providing time bound assistance to them rendering their services at the forefront, he said and added that it is necessary for the youth of the Jammu & Kashmir as the certificate is necessary for the admissions and the jobs and the future of the youth relies on the timely delivery of the certificate.
Sharma said the domicile certificate is not merely a piece of paper, but a document that restores the honour and dignity of lakhs of people who were victimized for past many decades. “Thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government for ending the inhumane discrimination against the residents of J&K,” he added.
As per the new domicile law, non-permanent residents who have residency proof of at least 15 years in J&K are entitled to get domicile certificates. Prior to the reading down of Article 370, only state subjects were allowed to buy land and apply for government jobs in Jammu and Kashmir and there existed a grave injustice with the communities like West Pakistan refugees, Gorkhas, Valmikis, displaced PoJK persons etc.
Munish Sharma, on the occasion, also praised the sincere efforts with which the revenue officials under the supervision of concerned Tehsildars are involved in the work. He said that catering to such a huge demand for the Domicile Certificates in such a short time is a herculean task in itself and they have engaged themselves in this job during the Covid Pandemic and are as such fit to get appreciation from all quarters.
