Delhi Citizens
condemn the heinous killing of Kashmiri Pandits
New Delhi, 24 March, 2003: We a group
of concerned citizens condemn the heinous killing yesterday of 24
Kashmiri Pandits in village Nandimarg of Pulwama district in South
Kashmir. This monstrous act against innocent people reflects the
depraved nature of the killers who are bent upon derailing efforts
of the sane elements of society who are trying to bring Kashmiri
Pandits and Kashmiri Muslims together. What has been done in Kashmir
is a dastardly act meant to create fear psychosis among ordinary
peace loving people of both Hindu and Muslim communities. As
citizens we share the heart wrenching grief of the families who are
left to mourn the dead. No sane individual or group could have
plunged the valley into this massive blood bath. Only the most
sinister minds could have conceived and executed this dastardly
crime. This insanity in which the criminal elements have gripped the
entire world finds its ghastly manifestation in events such as this.
It must stop and stop at once.
We demand:
Immediate and urgent action to catch the criminals responsible
Undertaking from the Central and State Administrations that no
untoward incident will be permitted to take place as a reaction.
Protection of minorities.
Relief and rehabilitation of the families of the victims to be
immediately given
Yours
Truly
