The Dehradun Police have assured its Jammu and Kashmir counterpart of taking all necessary measures for the safety and security of Kashmiri students studying there amidst allegation of their harassment after the Pulwama terror attack, an official said here on Saturday.

Some Kashmiri youths studying in the Uttarakhand capital have alleged that they were harassed and have been asked by their landlords to vacate accommodations fearing attacks on their properties in the aftermath of the deadliest attack on security forces in Kashmir on Thursday that left 42 CRPF personnel dead.

“This refers to the circulation of news regarding the harassment of Kashmir-based students in Dehradun. In this regard it is informed that the authorities from the Jammu and Kashmir Police have spoken to the authorities concerned in the Dehradun Police,” a police spokesperson said here.

He said the Dehradun Police have assured the Jammu and Kashmir Police that they were in touch with the representative of youths from Kashmir and all necessary arrangements for the safety and security of students in Dehradun have been put in place.

“Jammu and Kashmir Police officers are in constant touch with the Dehradun Police,” the spokesperson said.
