(PTI Photo) Srinagar: Kashmiri Pandit employees working under the Prime Minister’s Rehabilitation Package (PMRP) in different parts of the Kashmir Valley have been advised to work from home and not report to their places of work until August 25, following a fresh terror threat against the community. The employees said the directive was communicated to them verbally by officials. The development comes days after a purported threat letter, dated August 7 and issued in the name of the United Liberation Council (ULC), warned of attacks and specifically named several Kashmiri Pandit employees. The letter, circulated online, accuses the administration and security forces of continuing a “malicious plan” against relatives of resistance supporters and fighters. It warns of a “severe” response and claims that those targeted would not be able to withstand it. The letter also specifically refers to employees working in government departments, alleging that some had acted against locals. It names six individuals and includes their personal contact details. The names and phone numbers have not been reproduced here to avoid amplifying sensitive personal information. The authenticity of the purported letter has not been independently verified. Following the threat, security arrangements have been strengthened at migrant colonies across the Kashmir Valley. Security personnel have increased surveillance and monitoring in areas where Kashmiri Pandit employees reside, while CCTV monitoring has also been stepped up as a precautionary measure. The move comes amid heightened concern over the safety of Kashmiri Pandit employees working in the Valley. The latest threat follows another warning issued last week by The Resistance Front (TRF), a Lashkar-e-Taiba-linked outfit, against Kashmiri Pandit employees. The threat reportedly named a few Kashmiri Pandit employees and accused them of harassing people. The fresh threats have prompted authorities to take precautionary measures, including asking PMRP employees to work from home until August 25. The purported ULC communication also warns officials, including the Lieutenant Governor and Director General of Police, saying the group is monitoring administrative departments and individuals it claims are involved in actions against resistance supporters. It further claims to have information about the families and locations of those named in the letter. The letter ends with a warning that the group would pursue those it has identified if necessary.
