A dependent existence has no existence By Ashok Raina Learn by heart the precious expression of Russian scholar of oriental studies Theodo(Fyodor) Stcherbatsky which I enclose here it in quotes,” A dependent existence has no existence” the significant thought here is not just without reasons to utilize I once it again. The logic conception more strongly clears our position for equally we need to notice and defend otherwise we are all guilty of ignoring .Beside we have sufficient weight of argument against the unreasonable ethnicity contiguous and induce upon us in an ill will manner. Those who argue and claims that the Kashmiri Pandits are now well settled and become the self reliant are essentially long-suffering from the estimation of this thought “ dead dog laughing in a cloud” are the characteristics which often always implied by orthers..We do not erase the past but continuing the impact of settlement and customs created new tensions. The increasing pressures and undermining of traditional authority go much deeper than references to what went before that continues to have a devastating effect. These processes are proved Often painful, troubled grounds for low growth rate to highest death rate among the community since their unfortunate exodus from the valley. The history of outstation movement of Kashmiri Pandits knows everyone is not necessary to recall but the continuing impact of settlement and unconcerned attitude of government including change in policy of government have produce tensions or divisions within a community. The debate on “settlement” necessitate to confront with keenness and frankly. Although land and what might be describe as “ intellectual Property” were great significance but basically Kashmiri pundits did not have value of these things nowadays become totally dependent upon a meager amount of cash relief. So it can easily to say that” A dependent existence has no existence”. society, culture and religion — a process which is a continuing one, but on the other hand this pattern is not universal because and after all every man is born free but he where is in chains. Beside the rule of law the legitimate authority attempt and strive to make ineffective and be too intensive for all time by means of exercise their influence through the elected office holders .The example of “APEX COMMITTEE” is much sufficient for whole understanding what has been happened with the KP community at large. Those who are living in tattered tented accommodation from several years are still awaiting for a roof to live with their extremely dependent children. These people continue to face difficult choices about their lives and their place in their own communities. Statistics on poverty and disadvantage are inadequate concerning the KP community .With whom I worked were shocked that the KP community have the lowest growth rate ,the lowest birth rate, the highest death rate ,the worst health and housing and the lowest educational, occupational ,economic ,social and legal status of any identifiable section of the state population. Those who are more skilled in the ways and concepts of the wider community society than elders are being deprived on the change in settlement policy. The extent of past dislocation and dispossession is well document ,but it is more difficult to assess its impact on current poverty and disadvantage among the common people of the community .However in comparison to1981 national population census the official record also indicates at present the vital numerical change in the population of KP community .Despite the several disadvantage factor the number of Kp community families still in force to retain the life as dependent existence in several camps exists in across the country . There is much need of study and survey regarding the KP minority community people of Jammu and Kashmir. The displaced community has not been settled till date. More than 3 Lakh families were being forcibly removed from the valley, among them only 7,000 families were to be adjusted in the simple government accommodations in the different localities of Jammu region .Though the remaining exodus families induce the path of rummage sale of their property at their native land at a negligible rates despite the restraining the sale deed Act of 1997. The income of per month of per head of the KP community has been fixed by the government of India 1250/(Rupees twelve hundred fifty) only in these much more price hike surroundings. Amazing is that the local state government recognized this community as a temporary residents(As bolded typed in their home town ration cards) and not stand for any expenses upon these citizens during their mass migration from the valley. What the maintainers assert is totally incorrect and baseless as initiation the propagandas against the community is understood for all. No at all is prepared to brazen out the real state of affairs and position causes a grave concern among the community. The prevalence of the several diseases like diabetes ,Hypertension thyroid ,eye diseases ,psychological ,nerves and other physique problems has been estimated to be 15 times greater than for other nearby population. In some areas more than 77% of population relating to this community is adversely affected. Notwithstanding these circumstances the large number of the community people are facing power cuts for more than 18 hours cannot sleep or performing the normal activities in view of the major power cuts by the government and despite the repeated pleases with the government power supply has not been improved still yet. Jagtitownship of the displaced kashmiri migrants is becoming a torture cell for its residents in absence of water and supply .The Kp community in general face problems of inadequate housing, lack of water, sewerage ,transport, inadequate facilities for school going children, non arrangement for orphan, physically handicapped or militant victim effected children of the community. Social disruption and frequent conflict with the police and the courts are similarly part of fringe dwelling life. In short we can easily to say that “ A dependent existence has no existence” at all.
