AMU students union says ban on JI in IOK shocking

Aligarh, March 05, 2019 (PPI-OT): Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) Students Union has expressed shock over the Indian authorities’ decision of imposing ban on Jamaat-e-Islami in occupied Kashmir. A spokesman of AMU Students Union in a statement in Aligarh said that the Indian Government had unleashed a state of undeclared emergency curbing dissent in all forms in occupied Kashmir. It has come as a shock that a socio-religio-political organization Jamaat-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir has been banned, he said.

The spokesman said the Indian people must be told that Jamaat-e-Islami runs as per its constitution wherein Article 5, clause 3, clearly mentions that the organisation strives through democratic and constitutional methods, adding that the Jamaat is neither an underground organisation nor is it a militant outfit.

“We, at Aligarh Muslim University have taken strong notice of the repulsive response against the ban on Jamaat in Jammu and Kashmir and want the Government of the day to come clean on charges against it,” the statement said.
