Sunderban, January 11 : The migrants belonging to the areas along the Line of Control
in Jammu region are facing a weather-induced crisis this time.
They lack even the basic amenities to survive in the extreme conditions. Many of them
are yet to return to their villages.
The threat perception, particularly in the winters, is far overdue to occasional exchange
of shelling in the civilian areas. Holed-up in tents, some of which are torn, they are in
no condition to withstand the icy winds.
In summer, they had to face problems due to outbreak of epidemics in the camps.
Since the children are studying in the open, the teachers have to suspend classes due
to bad weather.
A teacher says, “We can teach, but we are worried about the children's health”.
The economy of the people here, which is mainly dependent on livestock, has been
affected with the increased mortality rate of the cattle due to extreme cold.
Shortage of fodder is another reason.
