When a historical displacement happens such as in Kashmir, we need to understand that governments cannot keep the houses vacant. Those will soon get filled with unsocial elements and it will become difficult to control crimes. The law of adverse possession exists because of that.
So when exodus happens the houses are taken over by new occupants, by paying some fees to the government.
They may not be the perpetrators of crimes against those who left the properties. So taking away their properties after they have paid the required sums to the government or other seller, is wrong too.
Any such attempt would lead to fresh set of hatred, anger, anguish, and feeling of injustice.
It happened in Kashmir exodus case. Now wanting to reinstate them, and expressing such feelings in movies is again another way to create insecurity in the hearts of those who have bought properties paying hard earned monies.

Speaking of forced abandoned houses and properties, during the systematic hunting, torturing, and killing of people in our community in 1984, my grandfather had to abandon his property in Greater Noida. Never recovered.

In the past, there were no governments and keeping records was difficult. But now, it should be possible to trace. While old structures would have given way without regular maintenance, and new structures would come in their place, taking away memories, monetary compensation by the government should be what justice is all about. At least, my sense of justice says that.
