Gorkhas in Jammu welcome revocation of provisions of Article 370

The Gorkha community living in Jammu is upbeat since the government scrapped provisions of Article 370 as they feel they will now get permanent resident certificates which will allow their children to apply for jobs and seats in professional courses of their choice.

Their ancestors had shifted to Jammu and Kashmir from Nepal decades ago to fight alongside the erstwhile Dogra Army and even now most families boasted of at least one war veteran, but they say they had been facing several challenges.

While the members are allowed to vote in assembly and local bodies elections, since three decades they have been demanding permanent residentship, representation in legislative council by nomination, scheduled tribe status and five per cent reservation in Sainik schools for their children.
