National Democratic Party Indian (NDPI) J&K UT president Rajesh Gupta expresses concern over threat by The Resistance Front to KP employees working under Prime Minister’s Rehabilitation Package

It is surprising to see the fresh list of 56 Kashmiri Pandit employees getting leaked and reaching the TRF’s blog Kashmir Fight. This is a security breach as terrorists have a clear idea about their place of posting,” Gupta said in a statement issued here.

NDPI Chief said the government must take strong note of it and find out who has leaked the list of 56 migrant KPs at a time when targeted killings are taking place in the Valley.The NDPI leader said officers involved in the act must be reprimanded and action should be taken against them.

He said KPs working under PMRP are living in fear due to the killing of their colleagues and the fresh threat has added to their woes.

He urged the government to take the fresh threats seriously and address the issue on priority while chalking out a fresh strategy.The NDPI on Tuesday urged police to conduct an enquiry on the militant threat to the 56 Kashmiri Pandit employees and stressed the administration to ensure their security.

Rajesh Gupta expressed serious concern over the threat given by a militant outfit, The Resistance Front (TRF) to the KP employees working under Prime Minister’s Rehabilitation Package (PMRP).

In line with capacity building efforts, there will be a provision for developing data experts who can handle forensic and related requirements,” it said.
According to the policy, a digital evidence preservation facility would also be created to have a secure environment for retention of digital evidence. It said J&K would establish a cyber security helpline/grievances system to record and address citizens’ grievances related to cyber theft, cyber frauds, pornography, especially (child pornography) cyber bullying.
The helpline would also advise various entities to counter cyber threats in their respective organizations with respect to computer infra, networks and application.
