SRINAGAR, Apr 10: The Kashmir Economic Alliance (KEA) chairman Yasin Khan has welcomed the decision of Jammu Chamber of Commerce and Industry to distance itself from communal forces, who have called for bandh in support of rape and murder accused in the region tomorrow.
In a statement, Khan who also heads the Kashmir Traders and Manufacturers Federation (KTMF), said that the call for humanity from Kashmir Inc has been warmly reciprocated by the Jammu Chamber of Commerce and Industries president Rakesh Gupta and other like-minded people in Jammu.
He said that they have publicly refused to support the call of fringe elements to observe Jammu bandh.
“By observing that the Kathua incident concerns humanity and can’t be seen through communal prism, the JCCI has upheld the cause of humanity and we welcome it with an open heart. It is truly a heart-warming gesture,” Khan said.
He said the development will help improve ties between the twin regions and contribute towards peace and prospect in the region.
