A Kashmir separatist group Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front ( JKLF) was banned by the government of India under “anti-terror law” on Friday.

Reports said that the separatist group headed by Muhammad Yasin Malik has been banned for alleged promotion of secessionist activities in Jammu and Kashmir.

The organization has been banned under various provisions of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. Its chief Malik was earlier arrested by the government forces under Public Safety Act (PSA) and shifted to Jammu jail.

Earlier this month, the Union home ministry also banned the Jamaat-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir for a period of five years on grounds of the outfit being in “close touch” with militant outfits.
