Prime Minister To Visit Jammu On Sunday
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh arrives in Jammu on Sunday to receive an honorary doctorate of letters (D Litt) at a special ceremonial occasion in Jammu University.
Dr. Manmohan Singh has been the recipient of honorary doctorate degrees from various National as well as International universities.
The university’s vice chancellor Amitabh Matto said, “'The Prime Minister's visit is important, he will become the most famous and distinguished alumni of the University. Whenever the students will go for placement nationally and internally, they will get the same recognition which the University will get after the Prime Minister's visit.”
Singh is also likely to lay foundation for a colony to house Kashmiri migrants near Nagrota.
But affiliates of Kashmiri Pandits think this is not what they want. They are demanding two-room tenement houses in the migrant camps of Jammu before the construction of a colony.
Kashmiri migrants also demand a quota for them in government jobs.
