Srinagar- Demanding a probe into the activities of NGOs“mushrooming” in Jammu and Kashmir, the BJP on Wednesday alleged that many of them were unregistered, receiving funds from abroad and were involved in reviving terrorism in the Union Territory.

Addressing a press conference here, BJP's J-K spokesperson Altaf Thakur said his party was not against all NGOs,“however, it is a matter of concern that there are 16,000 of them in J-K, but only 239 are registered”.

“We have credible inputs and evidence that they received foreign funds and such funds are used in terror activities. There is a need to go deeper and investigate their funding and how they spent those funds,” he said.

Thakur noted that the government has already acted on several NGOs which had terror links.

“Many were banned and investigating agencies carried out raids on many. But, this is a sensitive issue and we want to bring it to the notice of the Government of India and J-K LG,” he said.
