Various organisations representing people of Kashmiri Pandit community today held protests here against the separatists and political parties opposed to the idea of creation of a "composite township" in Kashmir Valley for the displaced people.

Members of the community living in various satellite townships demanded townships in the Valley where they can live peacefully.

"It has been 25 years that we were forced to leave Kashmir valley and now we want to go back to our homeland. At present the situation is not conducive for our return to our native places so we want a Jagti-type township in Kashmir Valley where we can go and live peacefully," said Kakaji Bhat, a resident of the Jagti satellite township for Kashmiri migrants.

He said Kashmiri Pandits want to return to their native places, but the opposition from separatists has shown that situation is not conducive for their return.
