Veteran separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani on 29 June announced his dissociation from the Hurriyat Conference. He had floated this faction of the Hurriyat in 2003 by enforcing a vertical split in the separatist grouping. Sources suggest that Geelani was unhappy with Mirwaiz-Umar-Farooq for being silent on the abrogation of Article 370 and division of the erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir state into two Union territories.
