Telangana BJP hails ban on PFI

Hyderabad: Welcoming the ban on the Popular Front of India (PFI) and all its affiliates, the Telangana BJP chief on Wednesday said that only a strong government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi could have taken such decisive action.
The party said in a statement that non-BJP state governments over the years were driven by their political compulsion of minority appeasement, leading to “dangerous organizations like PFI” to grow nationally.
The Central government on Tuesday declared the PFI and its fronts as an unlawful association with immediate effect for a period of five years.
