Professor Bhim Singh said the protest march will start if Jammu migrants are not provided with all their dues by December 15.
A group of migrants from the Jammu region today threatened to march to the national capital and hold a sit-in in front of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence if they are not paid relief at par with Kashmiri migrants.
"Hundreds of Jammu migrants, mostly camping in Talwara belt of Reasi district shall hold a protest march from Jammu to Delhi if not paid relief at par with Kashmiri migrants", Professor Bhim Singh, the chief patron of Jammu (Talwara) Migrants Action Committee said today.
He demanded payment of all their arrears which is about Rs 54 crores, in accordance with the judgement of the Supreme Court of India dated July 13, 2006.
The protest march will start if the Jammu migrants are not provided with all their dues by December 15. Mr Singh said, "They shall hold fast unto death in front of Prime Minister Modi's residence."
Mr Singh, also a patron of Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP), accused the Congress, Peoples Democratic Party and BJP leadership of playing foul with the migrants of Jammu. He alleged that the Jammu migrants had been discriminated by the ruling parties.
