[Reader-list] If Pakistan bans JuD, we should demand banning of saffron outfits

[Javed]

There are reports that Pakistan govt. is arresting many clerics and
banning extremist organizations (responsible for Mumbai terror). I
think it is high time we demand a ban on our own home-grown terror
outfits like Abhinav Bharat, VHP, MNS, BD, RSS and so on. A movement
should start for this from this very platform. What do you say?

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan will fulfil its obligations under a UN Security
Council statement targeting four members of Lashkar-e-Taiba and
charity
Jamaat-ud-Dawa linked to the banned Islamist group, the government
said on Thursday. ( Watch )

The statement, which gave no further details, came after the UN
Security Council sanctions committee targeted four members of the
group blamed for the Mumbai attacks, and a charity widely viewed as
its political arm, for an assets freeze and other sanctions.

"Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani has said that Pakistan has
taken note of the designation of certain individuals and entities by
the UN under 1267 resolution of the UN Security Council and would
fulfil its international obligations," a government statement said.
