As Jammu and Kashmir awaits the arrival of Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on Friday, the survivors of last month's attack in Nadimarg, where 24 Pandits were killed, are disappointed.
"We expected nothing from the prime minister. We only thought he would visit us and share our grief. Instead, he has avoided us," said Jyoti Pandita, who had lost five family members in the massacre.
"We have nothing to do with his visit, as he has disappointed us."
"What do we expect from the prime minister? Neither we are registered as migrants nor given any jobs even a month after the carnage," Bushan Lal Pandit, another survivor, said.
All State Kashmiri Pandit Conference general secretary H L Chatta said, "The prime minister's visit is a non-issue for us."
"We don't demand anything from him. He is visiting a different constituency."
