Highly placed intelligence sources say that a strong group of 400 -450 from J-e-M ( Jaish-eMohamamd), have taken vantage shelters in dense jungles which falls in Bandipora and Gandarbal districts. Jaish -e-Mohammad belongs to Deobands School of thought. It believe in Wahhabi principles. Jaish-e-Mohammad has its terrorist outfit based in Pakistan and is active in Kashmir. Azhar Masood heads this organisation in Pakistan. JeM originally operated its training camps in Afghanistan, jointly with the other militant groups. After the fall of the Taliban government, it relocated them to Balakote and Peshawar in KhyberPakhtunkhwa and Muzaffarabad in PoK. The Deobandi movement in Pakistan has been a major recipient of funds from Saudi Arabia from the early 1980s till early 2000s. Later, this funding was diverted to the rival Ahl-alHadith movement. During the Indian independence movement, the Deobandis advocated composite nationalism in which Hindus and Muslims were seen as one nation united against the British. After the abrogation of Art 370 and 35 A , mainstream political parties, such as the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), National Conference (NC) , Congress, Peoples Conference (PC) and other splinter groups, lost their credibility and image in public because of their wicked deeds committed in the past. Speculations are rife that former minister Altaf Bukhari in PDP has been hobnobbing with the BJP to provide them a new political business in J&K UT. |
