This faction primarily included teams like Hizbul Mujahideen, Lashkar-e-Toiba, Al-Badr, Harkat-ul- Ansar, Harkat-ul-Jehadi Islam, and Jaish-e-Moham- Madi. These teams had been the primary forces behind the exodus and genocides of Kashmiri Pandits throughout the Nineties. It was the time when Geelani was the King of Kashmir. Whenever he wished he would impose a shutdown on poor Kashmiri individuals. The murders, rapes, and lootings throughout these shutdowns may by no means be coated by the media. He was once the primary one to sentence the loss of life of any Kashmiri separatist, however wouldn’t say a phrase when Indian Army troopers and policemen died. Geelani had created an air of worry in Kashmir Valley.Unconditional assist by the UPAGeelani being a instructor and a verbally delicate separatist was seen by Congress as somebody to interact with. Thinking of him as a helpful fool, each Government went on to feed him on state coffers.
