Kerala’s Pinarayi govt demands immediate ban on PFI; Modi govt yet to decide

News Network

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan-led Kerala government has urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led union government of India to immediately impose ban on the Popular Front of India (PFI).

Kiren Rijiju, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs, told media persons on Wednesday that the issue was discussed at the annual DGP meet held in Madhya Pradesh’s Tekanpur in January, where Kerala police chief Lokanath Behera gave a detailed presentation on the PFI’s growth and activities in the State.

The session was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Rajnath Singh and other senior officials in the security establishment. “Kerala has pressed for a ban on the PFI and we are examining the case,” said Mr. Rijiju.

Mr. Behera listed four cases where members of the PFI were involved in criminal activities, said a senior Home Ministry official. The Centre will collect more facts and evidence about the activities of the outfit before declaring it an “unlawful association”, the official added.

“It has never happened in the past that activities of a particular organisation were discussed threadbare at a DGP meet. The PFI is under the scanner, but is not yet banned. On earlier occasions, organisations like SIMI (Students’ Islamic Movement of India) and Indian Mujahideen were discussed at DGP meets, but only after they were banned,” said the official.

The DGP meet is an annual affair organised by the Intelligence Bureau where issues concerning internal security are discussed.

The National Investigation Agency had last year sent a detailed report to the Home Ministry and mentioned four cases where cadres of the PFI had either been charge-sheeted or convicted.

The NIA said it examined nine cases where men and women converted to Islam and in at least four of them, the involvement of members of the PFI was established.

Good decision if Kerala govt banning PFI. I dont know about other states. But in Kerala they involved in many terror activities and they were under probe. I mean their activities. and it's not immediate ban mr.reporter. Their activities were suspicious and many proved. The probe started atleast two year ago

Is anyone discussed about baning terror outfit RSS????

RSS Should be BAN in INDIA. Criminal activities starting from killing Gandhi,Gujrath killing, Babri majid demolish etc

PFI is a national organisation. But in Karnataka, BJP blames Siddaramaiah for not banning PFI. But no BJP ruled states banned PFI. Modi govt also not ready to ban PFI... What the F***

You can't ban the PFI and curtail freedom for particular community without doing the same for other organizations, one of which has been banned in India thrice previously.

How long you people speak these kind of blatant lies against PFI. The same set of baseless allegations you made against PFI, please apply them to RSS, BD. CPM, BJP and Congress - ALL THESE WILL BE BANNED within a Minute. You people daily killing members of other organisations - there are thousands of cases to quote, why your mouth is shut. Dont be spineless cowards, speak & behave like MAN with maturity.

Congress creating confusion among Muslim over CAA, claims BSY

News Network

January 5,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 5: BJP leader and Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa once again blamed the Congress of creating 'confusion' among the Muslim community over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act-2019 while launching a door to door campaign to dispel such rumors.

Yediyurappa was on a door-to-door campaign to make people aware of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and to allay their fears.

"Unnecessarily, the members of Congress are creating confusion among the Muslim community. I assure you that not a single Muslim will be affected because of CAA," said B. S. Yediyurappa.

"Almost all previous Prime Ministers have supported it, now Congress is creating a problem so as to create confusion among Muslims. That's why we are out on the door-to-door campaign," he said.

The Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019, seeks to grant Indian citizenship to Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who entered India on or before December 31, 2014.
