The chairman of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), Yasin Malik, on Tuesday pleaded guilty before a Delhi court for terror funding in the Kashmir valley in 2017.

The chairman of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), Yasin Malik, on Tuesday pleaded guilty before a Delhi court for terror funding in the Kashmir valley in 2017.
Reports said Malik is guilty of all the charges including those under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA). He said he was not contesting the charges against him including sections 16 (terrorist act), 17 (raising funds for the terrorist act), 18 (conspiracy to commit terrorist act), and 20 (being a member of a terrorist gang or organisation) of the UAPA and sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy) and 124-A (sedition) of the IPC.
Following Malik’s confession, filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, who directed The Kashmir Files, took to Twitter and called senior Congress MP, Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, and Twinkle Khanna genocide deniers. Replying to ANI’s tweet, Agnihotri tagged Shashi Tharoor and Kejriwal and asked if they are still laughing and call the film Islamophobic and half-truth.
Have a look at Vivek Agnihotri’s tweet:
For those who don’t know, Shashi Tharoor commented on The Kashmir Files being banned in Singapore and shared assorted comments on his tweet. After receiving a backlash, Tharoor wrote that he tweeted a factual news item with no comment on its content or on the film the Kashmir Files which he has not seen yet.

Have a look at Shashi Tharoor’s tweet:
Arvind Kejriwal, on other hand, refused to make The Kashmir Files tax-free in Delhi and had said that Vivek Agnihotri should upload the film on YouTube for free streaming.
The Kashmir Files is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Kashmir valley in the 1990s. The film triggered several political debates on social media across India and divided platforms. BJP-led states like Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Bihar, and Assam declared the film tax-free and urged their people to watch the film.
