Tehreek-e-Azaadi Jammu and Kashmir (तहरीक-ए-आज़ादी जम्मू और कश्मीर) abbreviated as TAJK is a terrorist front organisation, run by Hafiz Muhammad Saeed.[1][2][3] By Indian government, It is claimed to be a font for Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD). In June 2017, it was banned by Pakistan[4] after India raised the issue at the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), a global anti-financial terror body at Paris in February 2017. On June 8, 2017, TAJK was placed on the list of “proscribed organisations” by the National Counter Terrorism Authority (NCTA), an Internal Counterterrorism Authority of Pakistan under Interior Ministry.[5]
