Two more Hurriyat-affiliated groups shun separatism in Kashmir: Amit Shah

Srinagar, March 26: Two groups affiliated with the Hurriyat Conference—J&K Tahreeqi Isteqlal and J&K Tahreek-I-Istiqamat—have renounced separatism and expressed faith in India's vision under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, Home Minister Amit Shah said Thursday.

This development comes two days after similar announcements by two other affiliates of the separatists' conglomerate.

On Tuesday, Jammu and Kashmir People's Movement (JKPM) and the Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Political Movement (JKDPM) announced the severing of all ties with separatism.

“Another great news from Kashmir Valley. Two more groups affiliated with the Hurriyat, namely J&K Tahreeqi Isteqlal and J&K Tahreek-I-Istiqamat, have discarded separatism and reposed their trust in the new Bharat built by PM Modi,” said Shah, in a post on X.

Under the Modi government, separatism is breathing its last, and the triumph of unity is echoing across Kashmir, added Shah.
