Jammu and Kashmir government is working on the draft surrender policy relating to return of Kashmiri militants who had crossed over to PoK, Union Home Minister P Chidambaram said today.
"The scheme (surrender policy) has to be worked out. I will request the state government to give us a draft as earlier as possible," he told reporters after the Unified Command meeting here.
"However, I have identified some points which have to be factored in like identification, screening, facilitating travel back to Jammu and Kashmir, de-briefing and rehabilitation.
"This will take time. We will work on the scheme patiently and carefully," he said.
The Home Minister said the idea was to facilitate youth who have crossed over to PoK to return to the state and be united with their families if they shun militancy.
