Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik Thursday said any party supporting the separatists is anti-national, in an apparent reference to PDP and National Conference who criticised the ban on Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI).

Without naming the two, the Governor said, "The political parties which are coming out in support of banned organizations are making their position clear and are siding with separatists."
Malik said the war against terrorism and militancy is not going to be stopped at any cost and "this is a battle that we will win and government will ensure that militancy is eradicated from the state."
