Alleging that governments at both the Centre and state failed to fulfill the long pending demands of PoK refugees, Jammu and Kashmir Sharnarthi Action Committee today warned to launch a district level agitation against the "discrimination" with displaced persons.

"The state and central government has failed to fulfill the long pending demands of PoK refugees. We warn the governments to launch district level agitation against the discrimination with displaced persons," president, JKSAC, Gurdeep Singh Pandey said during a function here.

Pandey alleged that those people, who have migrated from Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) in 1947, 1965 and 1971, remained neglected and discriminated from the political, economic and social point of view.
 

The refugees are demanding one-time settle-cum- rehabilitation package from the Centre and state governments.

The JKSAC leader said that both the governments proved to be total failure in redressing the problems of the PoK refugees.
