Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is already going through a tough phase, as many of its veteran leaders have left the party and joined other Kashmir based political parties and its voter base is receding. Hence, the party Chief Mehbooba Mufti is ready to do everything to keep her party in the fray of the election. For this purpose, the party is not hesitant to save even the terrorists and separatist. In the new maneuver of the party, its president has offered to assist the terrorist Yasin Malik and his organization Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) ignoring the fact that her younger sister was kidnapped by this same organization in 1989. The party president even promised to remove the ban from the organization if her party comes to power.

 

 

 

 

In 1989 the sister of Mehbooba Mufti was kidnapped by JKLF and got its 5 dreadful terrorists released in exchange of safe release of Dr. Rubaiya Sayeed, the younger sister of Mehbooba Mufti. Recently, Modi Government banned this terrorist organization and its chief Yasin Malik was arrested by the NIA.

 

 

 

 

Malik is the prime accused in the kidnapping of Dr. Rubaiya Sayeed, daughter of former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mufti Mohd Sayeed and sister of PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti. He is also accused of killing of five Air Force personnel in Srinagar in 1990 and Justice Neelkanth Ganju, the judge who had given death sentence to JKLF terrorist Maqbool Bhat and former director, Doordarshan Kendra in Srinagar, Lassa Kaul. The terrorists of JKLF killed many Kashmiri Hindus in Kashmir valley during the terrorism of 1990s.

 

 

 

 

JKLF is the terrorist organization founded by Amanullah Khan and Maqbool Bhat. This organization is active in both regions of Kashmir, i.e. Kashmir region under Indian administration and the other part, which is under the illegal occupation of Pakistan. In 1984, JKLF mercilessly murdered the Indian diplomat Ravindra Mhatre in Birmingham. With the active support Pakistan, the terrorist outfit spread terrorism across Kashmir valley and killed thousands of Kashmiri Hindus and forced them to leave the Kashmir valley. But with the rise of pro-Pakistan terrorist group Hizbul Mujahidin, Pakistan diverted all its resources to Hizbul. In August 1990, Yasin Malik was captured by security forces and he was imprisoned until May 1994. By 1992, the majority of the JKLF terrorists were killed or captured. Immediately after his release from prison Yasin Malik was left with no option but to declare indefinite ceasefire, as it was not getting cross border support and most of the JKLF terrorists were killed either by security forces or pro-Pakistan terrorist outfits.
