Even though a large number of PM package employees have been awaiting release of salaries ahead of the festival of Maha Shivrati, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha Thursday announced  full salaries of all PM package & other minority community employees who have resumed their duties in Kashmir have been released. 

LG Sinha made this announcement while addressing a gathering of Kashmiri pandits at a three-day long Mahashivratri Mahotsav at Jagti Colony.

Sinha also told the gathering of Kashmiri pandits, “Jammu Kashmir Government always stands by you. Your safety is our top priority and we are taking all possible measures to ensure that. This is the commitment of the Government of India and Prime Minister”.

All the issues of the Migrant Kashmiri Pandit community are being taken up for their resolution with utmost sensitivity, said the Lt Governor. “You have suffered a lot for three long decades. I pray that the day will come when you return to your homes with honour. I hope with your return Kashmir will find its lost glory”, added the LtGovernor.

In order to facilitate Kashmiri Pandit Community in Camps & Non-Camp Areas, Relief Organisation has brought together 20 Line Departments for the Mahashivratri Mahotsav. 

Extending the greetings of Mahashivratri in advance, the Lt Governor said the festival is the celebration of Kashmiri culture & the spiritual-cultural heritage of the country.

It is the symbol of our ancient values and ethos. Kashmiri Pandit brothers & sisters living in different parts of the country & the world have kept this tradition alive, he added.
