Pune: Nearly 40,000 Sindhi settlers in Pimpri camp area to benefit

Nearly 40,000 people of the Sindhi community in Pune’s Pimpri camp area will benefit from the government move to grant property ownership rights to Sindhi refugees who migrated from Pakistan after the Partition and settled across the state. The government recently announced they will have to pay a one-time sum, which will be 50 per cent of the Ready Reckoner rates, for claiming the property.
