Why was the ban on Yasin Malik-led JKLF extended under UAPA

The ban on Yasin Malik-led JKLF was prolonged for five years under the UAPA for security reasons.
  • The ban on Yasin Malik-led JKLF was extended under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) due to concerns regarding the organization's involvement in promoting secessionist activities in Jammu and Kashmir.
  • Authorities cited the group's alleged links to terrorism and its role in inciting violence in the region as reasons for the ban extension.
  • The government expressed apprehensions that the JKLF under Yasin Malik's leadership posed a threat to national security and peaceful coexistence in the region.
  • By extending the ban, the authorities sought to prevent further disruptions and maintain law and order in the sensitive region.
The decision to prolong the ban on the Yasin Malik-led JKLF under UAPA was made to safeguard national security interests and prevent any activities that could jeopardize peace and stability in Jammu and Kashmir.
