Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday declared Tehreek-e-Hurriyat (TeH) as an 'Unlawful Association' under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) 1967 for the next five years for "fomenting terrorism and anti-India propaganda" in the UT.
In his post on 'X' he said, "The outfit is involved in forbidden activities to separate J&K from India and establish Islamic rule. The group is found spreading anti-India propaganda and continuing terror activities to fuel secessionism in J&K." The Home Minister said, "Under Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji's zero-tolerance policy against terrorism, any individual or organisation found involved in anti-India activities will be thwarted forthwith. The objective of Tehreek-e-Hurriyat, Jammu and Kashmir (TeH) is to separate Jammu and Kashmir from India and establish Islamic rule in Jammu and Kashmir. This organisation has been involved in fomenting terrorism and anti-India propaganda to fuel secessionism in Jammu and Kashmir, which is prejudicial to the sovereignty, security and integrity of India. Many criminal cases have been registered against this organization under various sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, Arms Act, RPC and IPC etc. (ANI)
