Indian tribunal upholds ban on IIOJK Hurriyat parties

New Delhi: A judicial tribunal of the Delhi High Court has upheld the Indian government’s ban on pro-freedom parties, including the Muslim Conference Jammu and Kashmir and the Jammu and Kashmir People’s League, for being at the forefront of advocating for the Kashmiris’ right to self-determination in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

According to Kashmir Media Service, the tribunal, led by Justice Neena Bansal Krishna, upheld the bans imposed under the black law Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). The tribunal, constituted on March 18 by the Indian government, confirmed the restrictions on the Muslim Conference Jammu and Kashmir and four factions of the Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Conference.

The Indian Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) had declared the Muslim Conference Jammu and Kashmir, led by Professor Abdul Gani Butt, a banned association on February 28 of this year. On March 15, the Home Ministry also designated four factions of the Jammu and Kashmir Peoples League as unlawful associations.

Since the revocation of IIOJK’s special status in August 2019, the Modi regime has banned approximately a dozen pro-freedom groups in IIOJK under the UAPA.
