Displaced Kashmiri Pandit Front Vinod Pandita have once again appealed to Prime Minister, Home Minister and Lt. Governor J&K personally take a humantarian review and get this meager cash assistance enhanced from Rs 13000 to Rs 25000 per month in order to tide over their derivations for sake of justice and equity in this tough time of their exodus that has crossed more than 37 years.
