Pakistani Hindu Migrants Evicted In Jaisalmer On Orders Of IAS Tina Dabi, READ Here Why?

After the administration bulldozed 28 ‘encroachments’ of temporary settlements (Kachchi basti), several Hindu migrants staying in the country are staging a dharna (strike) outside the district collectorate in Jaisalmer in Rajasthan reportedly on the direction of IAS Tina Dabi.

Pak’s Hindu migrants stage a protest on encroachments

According to the media reports, the displaced Hindus from Pakistan have been residing in the Amarsagar gram panchayat area which is just 4 km from the district headquarters.

The protesters also alleged that their homes were set ablaze and the woman who was agitating against the administration’s move was forcefully dragged from the protest site, the media reports stated. Despite this cruel behavior, the migrants said that until they were resettled elsewhere, they would not budge from their dharna.

IAS Tina Dabi’s stance

Whilst, IAS Tina Dabi was seen defending the protest, saying that the action has been taken on the basis of complaints received from Amarsagar sarpanch and local residents. Further, the complainants claimed that the Hindu migrants illegally occupied the land belonging to the state government’s urban improvement trust (UIT).

Despite several prior notices served to the refugees to vacate the illegally-occupied land, they refuse to budge, she added. As per the reports, to date, almost 28 encroachments have been removed from the site.

Guidelines yet to be issued

The IAS officer also asserted that the state government is yet to issue any guidelines regarding the resettlement of the migrants who had been granted citizenship of India.

During an anti-encroachment drive in April, Jodhpur Development Authority razed about 200 structures, most of them belonging to migrants from Pakistan. Following these members of the community filed a complaint that they were duped by three persons who “sold” the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) land to them.

In 2019, the Narendra Modi-led government passed the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act that pledged to give citizenship to the Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists, Parsis, and Christians — from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Afghanistan who had come to India on December 31, 2014.
