The Dukhtaraan-e-Millat (DeM) an all-woman group that advocates jihad to establish Islamic law in Kashmir and to establish a separate state from Pakistan. VideoVideo: 2013 Dukhtaran-e-Millat (DeM) Chief, Syeda Aasiya Andrabi today voiced her support to the fatwa issued against an all girls band in Kashmir by an Islamic cleric. Andrabi said that the cleric had issued it as per the tenets of the Islamic Shariat law and it is better if the girls give away their 'wayward' ways. Meanwhile, commenting on the issue, Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari today stated that a common consensus should be built up among the political outfits in the Kashmir valley for the flourishing of freedom of expression. 'Pragaash' (Light at Dawn), the only all girls band from the Kashmir valley, had to disband after receiving threats online and the fatwa that was issued against them by the religious cleric, the Mufti Bashiruddin Ahmad, terming their conduct as obscene and un-Islamic.

Groups and individuals included in TRAC's database range from actual perpetrators of social or political violence to more passive groups that support or condone (perhaps unwittingly) such violence. The spectrum of violence represented by these groups is vast, from Jihadists who bomb train stations to financial institutions that transfer funds. Some groups that originally engaged in violence but have since become legitimate political parties are included to provide historical perspective. TRAC is in no way attempting to determine whether groups or individuals are terrorists -- only to convey reported information about their activities and official State status. While TRAC attempts to ensure the accuracy of its TRAC database, the entries in the database are from numerous different sources.
