The Popular Front of India (PFI) is an extremist & militant Islamic fundamentalist organisation in India formed as a successor to National Development Front (NDF) in 2006.

PFI claims to work in cooperation with human rights activists towards curbing human rights violation in the nation, but in reality they campaigns for Muslim Reservation. Been fooling all in the name of minority rights.

The org has been accused of various antisocial & anti-national activities ever since it’s inception.

Includes connections with various Islamic terrorist groups, possessing arms, kidnapping, murder, hate campaigns, rioting, Love Jihad & various acts of religious extremism.

In July 2010, #Kerala Police seized country-made bombs, weapons, CDs & several documents containing Taliban & Al-Qaeda propaganda, from PFI activists.

Raids conducted were obviously termed "undemocratic" & "unconstitutional" by the org.

In April 2013 a series of raids by Kerala Police on PFI centres across N. Kerala found lethal weapons, foreign currency, human shooting targets, bombs, explosive raw materials, gunpowder, swords & other things.

The raid, acc to Kerala Police revealed the terror face of the PFI.

The organisation is also known for its anti-Imperialist & anti-Zionist stance, as seen in the pro-Palestine protests in various parts of the country in Nov 2012, & later in July 2014 with the nationwide solidarity campaigns with slogan "I am Gaza”.

Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) is a banned Islamist org formed in UP in Apr 1977. It’s mission is to convert Muslim society to live according to the Muslim code of conduct. Indian govt describes it as a terrorist org, & banned it in 2001, shortly after 9/11 attacks.

PFI's national chairman, Abdul Rehman was the former national secretary of SIMI, while their state secretary Abdul Hameed was SIMI's former state secretary.

Retired Indian army officer P. C. Katoch has claimed that PFI maintains links with Pakistani intelligence agency, ISI.

Two boys were kidnapped on 8 June 2011 from Mahajan College premises in Mysore & murdered by members of Karnataka Forum for Dignity (KFD), who sought ransom of 5 crore rupees to raise funds for their organisation. In 2006 KFD merged with PFI.

Arrested KFD members are Adil, alias Adil Pasha; Athavulla Khan; Ameen, alias Syed Ameen; Rehman, alias Shabbir Rehaman; Kouser, alias Mohammed Kouser; & Safeer Ahmed, alias Safeer. Following their arrest, Karnataka state govt requested the Union government to ban KFD.

In 2012, Kerala govt informed Kerala HC that PFI had active involvement in 27 murder cases,mostly of cadres of CPI-M & RSS. In 2014,again submitted before the Kerala HC that PFI were involved in 27 communally motivated murder cases,86 attempt to murder cases & 106 communal cases.

On 6 July 2012, N. Sachin Gopal, a student of Modern ITC, Kannur & district leader of @ABVPVoice was allegedly stabbed by members of the Campus Front & PFI. Student leader Vishal was murdered. Gopal later died of his injuries at KMC Hospital in Mangalore on 6 September 2012.

After the #Assam riots in 2012,SMS hate campaign was launched in S.India threatening people from NE with retribution,particularly after Ramzan. Source of these hate msgs were traced to Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami(HuJI) & PFI along with its affiliate orgs Manita Neeti Pasarai & KFD.

More than 60 million msgs were sent in a single day on 13 Aug 2012.

28-30 % of the msgs were found to have been uploaded from Pakistan. The SMS campaign was designed to create a panic among the people from North-East, forcing them to flee.

This led to a mass exodus of 30,000 people from cities of Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad & Delhi.

Union Home Ministry banned bulk SMS & MMS for 15 days to quell rumors & threats.

PFI has been said to be behind the Anti #CAA violence, arson, sabotage, dharna. The investigation has revealed that about Rs 120 crore has been spent to carry out these activities & that it is a planned network that is funding money for such protests.

The police have found evidence against the PFI in UP.

27 bank accounts were opened in the name of PFI, 9 bank accounts belong to Rehab India Foundation, an organization associated with PFI & the same org has opened 37 bank accounts in the name of 17 different people & orgs.

Sources say the radical Islamist outfit PFI has paid hefty funds to several beneficiaries in connection with anti #CAA protests.

Beneficiaries include Congress leader Kapil Sibal, Supreme Court lawyer Indira Jaising, Dushyant A Dave & Abdul Samand.

Sources say Sibal received Rs 77 lakh, Jaising Rs 4 lakh, Dushyant A Dave Rs 11 lakh & Abdul Samand Rs 3.10 lakh.

The funds were also given to New Jothi Group(New Jothi Marketing Corporation & New Jothi General Plastic Industries) of Rs 1.17 cr & to PFI Kashmir of Rs 1.65 cr.

This is just the tip of the iceberg & some details about Radicalized Islamic nexus in #Bharat.

Hopefully Hon PM @narendramodi, Hon HM @AmitShah, Hon CM @myogiadityanath & #AjitDoval Sir will get our nation free from these Radicals.
