The Lt Governor Manoj Sinha has recently announced that all militancy victim families would be provided compensation and jobs. He has also directed police to register cases in some cases, where the cases were not registered yet.“I also expressed appreciation for the support by the Central and State Government during Muharram and brought up the issue of certain banned processions, urging that steps be taken to ensure their peaceful resumption from next year onwards,” Ansari said.The LG administration from last few years have allowed the Muharram processions in Srinagar and other parts of the Valley after being banned for nearly 32 years following the eruption of militancy.“We are hopeful that the conversation will lead to tangible outcomes for the people on the ground,” said Ansari, who lost the last Assembly election from Pattan constituency to NC’s Javed Reyaz Bedar, a retired police officer.This result marked a significant shift in Pattan’s political landscape, where the Ansaris had historically held sway and it was considered their strong bastion.
