The Kashmiri Pandit families living in the valley have been offered security by the Jammu & Kashmir police, but those who do not wish to take it have to give an undertaking, saying that they will be responsible for their own safety and won’t blame the police or government for that, Kashmiri Pandit leader Sanjay Tickoo said on Sunday.

Tickoo said a majority of Kashmiri Pandits have refused to give that undertaking. “...The surprising thing is that an undertaking is taken from them addressed to the concerned SSP that they don’t want to take security. “There is a line in the end which says God forbid if something happens, it’s responsibility will not be on the police or the government,” Tickoo said. He said he has raised the issue with the IG Police and Lt. Governor, but so far there has been no response.
