ISLAMABAD: The Foreign Office on Monday condemned India’s illegal decision to outlaw Tehreek-e-Hurriyat Party in Jammu and Kashmir for five years.
The Indian Ministry of Home Affairs notified the ban for five years under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act 1967.
In a statement in Islamabad, Foreign Office spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said banning of political parties was part of India’s campaign to subjugate Kashmiri people.
She said India must lift the ban on all political parties unlawfully outlawed in the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, and respect the fundamental rights and freedoms of the Kashmiri people.
