thebalanced.newsNIA Conducts Raids in Kashmir Targeting Banned Jamaat-e-Islami and Linked Locations
In February 2024, the Indian government extended the ban on Jamaat-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, citing its alleged involvement in terrorism and separatism. Following this, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted coordinated raids across multiple locations in Srinagar and Shopian, including the banned Darul Uloom Sirajul Uloom and the residence of former Jamaat chief Shahzada Aurangzeb. The operations aim to investigate attempts to revive separatist activities and anti-India narratives in the region.
