Another Hurriyat announce disassociation from separatist ideology

Srinagar: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said that one more affiliate organization of Hurriyat Conference has disassociated itself from separatist ideology.

In a post on X, Shah said till now as many as 12 Hurriyat-linked organizations have broken off from secessionism, resting trust in the Constitution of India.

“Under the Modi govt the spirit of unity rules J&K. Another Hurriyat affiliate organization, Jammu and Kashmir Mass Movement, has rejected separatism, declaring complete commitment to the unity of Bharat. I sincerely welcome their move. Till now as many as 12 Hurriyat-linked organizations have broken off from secessionism, resting trust in the Constitution of India.” Shah said.

“This is a victory of PM Shri @narendramodi Ji's vision for Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat.”

The Jammu and Kashmir Mass Movement is headed by Fareeda Dar alias Fareeda Behanji.

After the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019, the Hurriyat Conference has been rendered virtually defunct. While almost the entire top- and middle-rung leadership of the hardline faction of Hurriyat is in jail, the moderate faction last month saw two of its constituents banned by the Centre.
