The Sikh community in India's Jammu and Kashmir region are welcoming Hindus and Sikhs from the neighbouring Islamic nations to settle with them in the valley post the enactment of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the repeal of Article 370.

The community recently proposed to Union Home Minister Amit Shah let the Hindus and Sikhs from the neighbouring countries live with them.

The Sikh community also assured that they would help these men in settling peacefully, IBNS said. 

“We Kashmiri Sikhs welcome CAA and revocation of article 370 and we will be happy if Sikhs and  Hindu community members coming to India from any part of the world can stay with us,” Perwender Singh, spokesperson of Kashmir-based All Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee (ASGMC) during a recent meeting with the home minister told Zee Media.

“We will ensure they are provided everything they need including starting of their livelihood,” he said (SAM)
