Intro:दिल्ली के जंतर मंतर पर आज सैकड़ों की संख्या में विस्थापित कश्मीरी पंडितों ने विरोध प्रदर्शन किया यह विरोध प्रदर्शन 19 जनवरी के उस दिन को याद करते हुए किया गया था जब हजारों कश्मीरी पंडितों को घाटी में अपने घर छोड़कर दूसरे राज्यों में या फिर रिफ्यूजी कैंपों में शरण लेनी पड़ी थी कश्मीर में आतंकवाद का पुरजोर विरोध करते हुए कश्मीरी पंडितों ने मोदी सरकार से उम्मीद जताई है कि अब उनके वापसी का रास्ता साफ हो सकेगा ईटीवी भारत ने ऐसे कुछ विस्थापित कश्मीरी पंडितों से बातचीत की जिनका कहना था कि पिछले 30 साल से वह कश्मीर वापसी की बाट जोह रहे हैं मोदी सरकार 6 साल से सत्ता में है लेकिन अभी तक उनकी वापसी के लिए कोई मजबूत कदम नहीं उठाए गए हालांकि हाल में लिए गए फैसले जैसे कि कश्मीर से धारा 370 का हटाना और यासीन मलिक की गिरफ्तारी से उम्मीद जगी है की कश्मीर में अलगाववादियों पर यह सरकार कड़ा रुख अपनाते हुए कश्मीरी पंडितों को एक सुरक्षित माहौल देगी जिसमें वह अपने घर वापसी कर सकेंगे


Body:19 जनवरी के दिन को याद करते हुए कश्मीरी पंडितों ने आज यह प्रदर्शन आयोजित किया था 30 साल पहले जो कश्मीर में नरसंहार हुआ उसका दर्द अभी विस्थापित कश्मीरी पंडितों के भीतर मौजूद है उन्हें आस है तो बस सरकार से कि वो उनकी वतन वापसी का रास्ता साफ करेंगे
