Srinagar: Reiterating its demand to impose complete ban on Yatra, the Kousar Nag Bachao Front on Saturday called upon Kashmir Pandits to return and join them in their campaign to preserve environment.
Talking to a local news gathering agency the General Secretary of KBF Sajjad Noorabadi said, Kashmir also belongs to Pandits and it is mandatory for them to preserve environment. Though they are not living here, but one day they will have to come back. This issue isnt only for us but for them too as they have been living here and protecting the ecology and environment.
We ask our brothers to come here. We will give you shelter and security, he said.
He said they are not against any particular religion but Kausar Nag Yatra has no historical background.
The General Secretary of the Front reiterated that the Yatra should be banned from both the sides. For us, the issue is not routes to the glacial lake, he said, adding: All we want is the ban on Yatra which poses danger to our environment and ultimately people would have to bear the brunt.
The Fronts General Secretary slammed government for misleading the masses. It is also disturbing that some people have made it religious issue, he added.
