The name kashmir Tigers first came out in january this year. The police have called this the shadow group of the Jaish-e-Mohammed organization.
The group claimed responsibility for a grenade attack in south kashmir in June.
In august 2019, after the amendment of Section 370, the police blamed the attacks on several new militant organizations such as the kashmir Tigers.
At least two of them are the Opposition Front (DRF) and the Popular Against Fascist Forces (PAFF). It has been revealed that Hizbul Mujahideen, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish organizations are behind these organizations.
The name of another organization, the United Liberation Front, has also come to light.
The security forces say there has been a change in the naming of these extremist organizations - from religiously identifiable names to 'secular' names.
