Home Ministry designates 23 Pakistan based individuals as terrorists under UAPA
The Union Home Ministry has designated 23 individuals based in Pakistan as terrorists under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act – UAPA.
They were linked to Jaish-e-Mohammad, Lashkar-e-Taiba and other organisations. The Ministry said the Government is committed to dismantling every terror module to safeguard the country and its citizens.
The amendment in the UAPA has strengthened India’s anti-terror legal framework by expanding the powers of the Central Government and investigative agencies. The amendment has empowered the Central Government to designate individuals, not merely organisations, as terrorists under the Act.
Akashvani correspondent reports that out of the 23 terrorists announced today, 17 are Pakistani nationals and six are Indian nationals. However, all of them are presently operating terrorist activities from Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
The designated terrorists are involved in anti-India activities, carrying out terror attacks, inciting terror, trafficking…

Govt declares 23 Pak nationals terrorists
The Centre on Saturday notified the designation of 23 Pakistan-based operatives linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and other organisations as 'terrorists' under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), according to a government order.
The Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 (37 of 1967) empowers the central government to add the name of an individual as designated terrorist if it believes that the individual is involved in terrorism.
Including the names of terrorists in the list will allow the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to block their finances, impose embargo on arms sales, and seize their assets.

The Union home ministry has designated 23 individuals based in Pakistan, associated with Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and other outfits, as “terrorists” under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for their involvement in various activities, including infiltration, recruitment, the supply of arms and planning attacks in Jammu and Kashmir.
Among those designated are close aides of LeT founder Hafiz Saeed, who is behind multiple attacks on Indian soil.
The Central government amended the UAPA in August 2019 to include a provision for designating an individual as a terrorist. Prior to this amendment, only organisations could be designated as terrorist organisations. Designating individuals as terrorists allows agencies such as the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to impose an embargo on arms and funds and seize the assets of such persons.
The current list of designated terrorists includes top names such as Hafiz Saeed, JeM chief Maulana Masood Azhar, 26/11 Mumbai attacks co-mastermind Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and US-based Khalistani leader Gurpat…
