The All Parties Hurriyat Conference

The All Parties Hurriyat Conference is an alliance of various political and religious groups in Jammu and Kashmir, united to advocate for the region's interests, including greater autonomy or independence. Established in 1993, it aims to represent the voices of Kashmiris amid ongoing conflict and disputes with India and Pakistan. While it seeks to promote dialogue and peaceful resolutions, the Indian government considers some of its members as a threat to national security, leading to restrictions. The Hurriyat acts as a unified platform for different factions advocating for Kashmiri self-determination, though its influence and recognition remain complex and contentious.
