New Delhi: The Modi Government has declared the Yasin Malik’s Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) as an ‘Unlawful Association’ for a further period of five years.

“The banned outfit continues to engage in activities that foment terror and secessionism in Jammu and Kashmir. Anyone found challenging the security, sovereignty and integrity of the nation will face harsh legal consequences,” Home Minister of India Amit Shah said in a post on X.

He added that the organisation threatened India’s integrity by promoting, aiding and abetting the secession of Jammu and Kashmir through militancy.
