APSCC reiterates demand for minority status to Sikh community in J&K

Srinagar, Dec 7 (UNI) Alleging discrimination by successive governments in Jammu and Kashmir, All Party Sikh Coordination Committee (APSCC) today reiterated the demand of granting minority status for members of the community in the state.
The APSCC also demanded that the Centre should take serious note of the situation prevailing in Kashmir, which reeled under unrest since July 9.
“The state continues to be in the grip of unrest over reports of killings, injuries, imprisonment of civilians, and burning of schools and official buildings. Maintaining silence on such issues will further aggravate the resentment of people and lead to the worsening of an already precarious situation,” APSCC chairman Jagmohan Singh Raina alleged.
