Tehreek-e-Azaadi Jammu and Kashmir

From Bharatpedia, an open encyclopedia

Tehreek-e-Azaadi Jammu and Kashmir (तहरीक-ए-आज़ादी जम्मू और कश्मीर) abbreviated as TAJK is a terrorist front organisation, run by Hafiz Muhammad Saeed.[1][2][3] By Indian government, It is claimed to be a front for Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD). In June 2017, it was banned by Pakistan[4] after India raised the issue at the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), a global anti-financial terror body at Paris in February 2017. On 8 June 2017, TAJK was placed on the list of "proscribed organisations" by the National Counter Terrorism Authority (NCTA), an Internal Counterterrorism Authority of Pakistan under Interior Ministry.[5]
