At the moment, Geelani's Hurriyat has 10 member organization in its faction. With the addition of another six to seven members, it will become the largest separatist conglomerate in Kashmir.
Mirwaiz Umar led Hurriyat suffered this week another split, third since its creation in 1993 when 26 separatist groups had come together to form an amalgam called All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) to fight for Kashmir's secession from India. The APHC broke up soon after the 2002 assembly polls, when the Lone brothers, Bilal Lone and Sajjad Lone were accused of fielding proxy candidates. This led to the creation of two factions of Hurriyat, one seen as moderate and led by Mirwaiz and another by the hardliner Geelani.
The second division occured in 2014 when Shabir Shah, head of the Democratic Freedom party (a constituent of the Hurriyat), with other senior separatist leaders claimed they were the real Hurriyat and named it as JK Hurriyat conference.
Jammu Kashmir Salvation Movement chairman Zaffer Akbar Bhat, Muslim League chairman Hakeem Abdul Rashid, Kashmir Freedom Front chairman Syed Bashir Indrabi, Syed Salim Geelani chairman National Peoples Party, Peoples league chief Sheikh Yaqoob and Yasmeen Raja chairperson Muslim Khawateen Markaz who quit the Mirwaiz group have expressed their willingness to join the Hurriyat led by Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Ayaz Akbar, spokesman of Geelani said.
The defectors from the Mirwaiz faction have alleged that Mirwaiz-led Hurriyat had departed from All Parties Hurriyat Conference's 1993 constitution and become defunct over the years.
Spokesperson of Mirwaiz's Hurriyat, however, said : "These members wanted to be made part of the executive council and they were trying very hard for it. But they never expressed any disastifaction against the functioning of the party or the constitution and till yesterday extended their full support by implementing the programs of the organization. So it is quiet strange that all of a sudden instead of discussing their new found reservations with regard to the constitution, they decide to run to the press."
The Mirwaiz Hurriyat spokesman said, "There is definitely more to all this than meets the eye and very soon the actual reason of their quitting will be known to all."
"We have received a formal letter from seven leaders," Ayaz said. "But as of now, we are waiting for Syed Ali Geelani who is to return to Srinagar on March 15." A day after Geelani's return, Ayaz said Geelani led Hurriyat advisory council or Majlis-e-shoora will meet to take a final call on admitting the members to the group.
Chairman of moderate Hurriyat Mirwaiz Umar has cautioned his supporters and appealed to them not pay heed to any "propaganda" and said that his faction "is the inheritor of the legacy of thousands of sons and daughters of the soil who sacrificed their lives and properties for the most noble cause of freedom and justice for the people of J&K."
The rebel group of six, however, said that it has been organizing programs independently for the last three months.
