TRF is the frontal of Lashkar: sources
In March this year, two new terrorist organizations were formed, one of which is TRF, and the other is Tehreek-e-Millat-e-Islami (TMI). According to sources in security agencies, TRF is the frontal organization of Pakistan-backed terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba. A senior official associated with the security agency said that such new organizations come out between March-April every year, which disappears again in a few months. These organizations are not new terrorist organizations, but the existing terrorist organizations; their people form groups by different names. Their purpose is to break people of other terrorist organizations and join them.

'New organizations are made for boosting enthusiasm'
He said that they come under different names because if there is a new organization, then there is a new enthusiasm, but it is all drama in reality. He said that the people of Lashkar had formed this organization to bring the terrorists of Hizbul with them. The security agency believes that the Hizbul Mujahideen, Lashkar, and Jaish-e-Mohammed are the only three terrorist organizations in Kashmir, and the Pakistani intelligence agency ISI is funding them.

However, soon after coming into existence, the TRF issued a statement challenging the terrorist organization Hizbul Mujahideen. On 24 April, militants kidnapped Jammu and Kashmir Police officers from Anantnag, who were rescued by security forces, and two terrorists were killed. The TRF then issued a statement. It said, 'A few days ago we warned Hizbul to stop killing Kashmiri policemen and civilians. Still, they kidnapped a Jammu and Kashmir policeman.'

It said that Hizbul should understand that our fight is with the army and not Kashmiris. We cannot fight the military without the support of these people. It was also stated in the same statement that a Hizbul commander has now joined the TRF. If Hizbul did not stop killing Kashmiri police and people, then direct action would be taken without any prior warning.

According to intelligence sources, Kashmir's people were fed-up with Pakistani and pro-Pakistani terrorists, and hence they started sharing their inputs with security agencies. Now the local youth who have gone on the path of terror are also disturbed by foreign terrorists' antics. Simultaneously, different ideologies of militant organizations and their confrontation are turning into a big war between them. In June 2019, a militant was killed, and one was injured in a fight between terrorists at Bijbehara, Anantnag, while the security forces wounded one.

What is the reason for this war?
According to intelligence sources, terrorists of Hizbul Mujahideen and Lashkar-e-Taiba attacked the terrorist of the Islamic State Hindu Province (ISHP). This is not only an ideological battle between terrorist organizations, but local terrorists are also troubled by the actions of foreign terrorists and pro-Pakistani terrorists. According to sources, ISHP and AGH terrorists are fighting to create an Islamic state and discuss following Islam completely like performing Namaz five times. It has all local terrorists who also get sympathy from the local people.

Simultaneously, both Hizbul Mujahideen and Lashkar organizations are pro-Pakistani and talk of including Kashmir in Pakistan. There is a fight between this ideology between the two, and foreign terrorists of Hizbul and Lashkar also commit excesses with ordinary people in Kashmir, especially with women. They sneak into any house and harassed women, due to which local terrorists are also against their antics and now have started opposing it. Many terrorists from the pro-Pakistani terrorist organization have joined ISHP and AGH against foreign terrorists who do not respect Kashmiri women.
