The Jamaat was restricted to the territory of Jammu and Kashmir only and its activities too were restricted thereto and after it was banned in February, 2019, it stopped all its activities and functions. Some names shown in the report have attended in the conference have no nexus or association with the Jamaat,\u201d Dr Fayaz said. He added that it is hereby clarified that neither the Jamaat nor any of its members were involved in the conduct or promotion of the said conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is also hereby made amply clear that any member migrating to any place outside the territorial jurisdiction of Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir ceases to be a member of the Jamaat as per the party constitution. So any person residing permanently outside Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir cannot claim to be a member of the Jamaat and the organisation cannot be held responsible for any activities done by such persons as any person settled abroad cannot have the membership of the Jamaat,\u201d Dr Fayaz said, adding that \u201cNobody has taken any verbal or written consent from any erstwhile leader or functionary of the Jamaat to speak in any conference and at present due to the ban, it is quite out of question to get such consent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said that so all queries raised about the participation of Jamaat-e-Islami, IOJK in the conference Russell Tribunal on Kashmir held at Sarajevo Bosnia openly or tacitly are not justified at all. \u201cJamaat before the ban was a socio- religious organisation working for the betterment of the humanity at large in accordance with the divine guidance of Islam for seeking the pleasure of Allah,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pertinently, on March 2, 2019, India\u2019s Central government announced a ban on Jamaat-e-Islami IOJK for a period of five years citing reasons that the outfit was in &#8220;close touch&#8221; with rebel outfits. The Jamaat-e-Islami was banned under \u201canti-terror laws\u201d as the Centre had claimed the step was taken to prevent any &#8220;escalation of secessionist movement&#8221; in J&amp;K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ministry of Home Affairs had issued the banning order a few days after the Jammu and Kashmir Police arrested around 100 people, including the Jamaat-e-Islami chief, and claimed that the outfit was involved in activities intended at disrupting India&#8217;s integrity. Jamaat-e-Islami IOJK was a socio-political and religious organisation that was founded in 1945 as a chapter of the Jamaat-e-Islami Hind during the Independence movement.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are not carrying out any activity, any Ex-member after leaving the jurisdiction of IOJK ceases to be a member of Organisation Srinagar, Feb 02 (Asia Free Press): Former president of Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) IOJK, Dr Abdul Hameed Fayaz Wednesday said the Jamaat refutes allegations levelled in DisInfoLab Report that the organisation and its associate members [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3719,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[80,84,396],"tags":[2192,981,2191,2194,2193],"class_list":["post-3718","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-asia","category-india","category-latest","tag-dr-hameed-fayaz","tag-iojk","tag-jei","tag-kno","tag-zahid-ali"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3718"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3718"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3718\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3719"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3718"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3718"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asiafreepress.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3718"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
