Jammu, Mar 19 (UNI) The Jammu and Kashmir Political Migrants Front today threatened to launch an agitation if their security cover was withdrawn or the government agreed to the demand for demilitarisation in the state.
A delegation of the Front, led by Chairman Sheikh Mohi-ud-Din Shabnam, met Governor S K Sinha at the Raj Bhavan this morning and presented a memorandum, seeking continuation of their security cover and no withdrawal of Security personnel from the state.
